Raspberries

Our raspberries are in season from mid to late July. Sign up for our e-mail list to be notified when raspberry picking officially begins. Picking hours are posted above.

You can bring your own containers or use our pint/quart containers. Bowls or buckets work best. If you bring containers, have them weighed before picking so we can deduct the container weight at checkout.

Yes, we are a family-friendly farm and love to have children come pick. Children must be supervised while picking to maintain safety and protect the crop. Horseplay, running in the berry patch, and throwing berries is not allowed.

It is best to wait for a dry day to pick raspberries, since they get mushy when wet. The field is closed during heavy rain and thunderstorms. If it’s been a rainy week, we may post additional picking days/times on our Facebook page.

We accept cash, checks, and all major credit cards (Visa, MasterCard, Discover).

Our raspberries are organically grown and spray-free. Washing berries is personal preference since there are no chemical residues. Personally, we usually don’t wash them since it crushes the berries. If you do wash them, wait until right before serving to keep them fresh.

Pick through berries to remove any leaves or stems. Pour into Ziploc freezer bags. Press out the air, seal, and freeze. We freeze our raspberries without washing. If you want to wash them, rinse the berries, then freeze in a single layer on cookie sheets. Transfer to freezer bags once frozen.

For maximum freshness, cool raspberries in the fridge as soon as possible after picking. Unwashed raspberries keep in the fridge for a couple days. Freeze for longer storage. Frozen raspberries keep for up to 1 year.
