Note: Beware the copycat websites like the one that stole our name and uses .farm extension: they copied my work and do NOT even update the info! I make updates EVERY day. They use tech tricks to get higher rankings, but have many more inaccuracies and out-dated info. Obviously, I cannot check every farm every day, but I do check as many as I can every day, and respond to all requests. They don't. Don't support the scammers!

Remember to always check with the farm's own website or Facebook page before you go - or call or email them if they don't have a website or Facebook page. Conditions at the farms and crops can change literally overnight, so if you want to avoid a wasted trip out there - check with the farm directly before you go! And if you know of any farms I missed and want to add a farm, please let me know! I'm making updates for this year as fast as I can - if you find anything out-of-date, wrong or not working - please let me know!

What's in season in December 2024, and other timely information:

Notes for December 2024: Crop growth is slowing down, except for Christmas tree farms and if you live in southern California, southern Texas, Florida or along the Gulf coast where citrus are starting, and believe it or not, the blueberry and strawberry season in those areas is about to begin. See your state harvest calendar . This year, much of the country is still seeing mild weather, so lettuce, peas, broccoli, cabbage and other greens are thriving. And this is a good time to get a canner and learn how to preserve foods for the winter, like canning some applesauce, apple butter or jam, which make great gifts. As do your own homemade specialty liqueurs! How about homemade cranberry sauce or a pumpkin pie made from a real pumpkin for the holidays? See our comprehensive list of easy home canning, jam and jelly making, preserving, drying and freezing directions. You can access recipes and other resources from the drop down menus at the top of the page or the site search. A fun winter activity is to make your own ice cream, even gelato, or low fat or low sugar ice cream - see this page. If you have any questions or suggestions, feel free to write me!

Valentine's Day - February 14 - See this website for Valentines Day history, facts and Amazon's top picks for fast, easy, inexpensive gifts for the man, woman or children in your life!

Comments from a visitor on March 21, 2010: "Just wanted to post that we have taken my grandchildren (and friends) to this farm several times and were always VERY hospitably received. Both children and adults enjoyed a wonderful experience each time we went. Not mentioned is the fact they sometimes have a baby lamb on premises and the children love to pet and feed him. Thanks for your site!! "
Comments from a visitor on April 26, 2009: "we found a pick-your-own farm thanks to your website. the idea was to build memories with our children (under 10) and enjoy some fresh fruit on a picnic in the same day. in fact, the state park just down the road was perfect and we invited our neihbors along for the ride. everything was perfect...except for being yelled at and lectured while on the picking excursion. really. the greeters (hired for the day) were great. friendly, informative and helpful. they did leave out one key detail-- that the owner didn't want folks to step over the rows of berries. our neighbor did so twice in an effort to photograph her kids. she didn't step on any bushes, not bother any other families. however, the owner's daughter (old enough to know better) ran over to rip her a new one. not nice. not neccessary. in the time spent yelling and threatening to make us leave, she could have simply explained the rule or just asked us to stay in a single row. no big deal. i guess the pressure of the day may have contributed to the "emotion" of the scolding. perhaps she had just given the same speech for the umpteeenthtime that day. it just seemed very odd and unexpected -- certainly not the genteel easy-going "country" hospitality we had imagined finding there. oh well, guess that explains the need to hire greeters. perhaps it owuld be wise to have the farmers leave for the dasy that tourists come in to pick. may be easier on everyone. we loved the learning our kids got and the fresh food-- could have done without the "big city" gripe out session."
Response from the farm on April 27, 2009: "in response to "Comments from a visitor on April 26, 2009" i would like to reply. yes, we do have rules. maybe they were not told or did not totally understand the rules. that is the reason that when i first spotted the gentleman neighbor jump the row (yes, no jumping over rows is rule #1.....for safety reasons and to protect the plants and irrigation under the plastic), he was told not to jump the row. several minutes later the lady neighbor jumped the row and was told not to jump the row. then, she does it again. that is when they were told that if it occured again they would need to leave the field. by the way, the kids did great! on a lighter note, both the family day on april 17th and april 25th were a huge success. we had a great turn out and, overall, the people were wonderful.
