Egg U-Pick Orchards in Southern Rhode Island in 2025, by county

Below are the U-Pick orchards and farms for eggs that we know of in this area.

Not all areas of a state have eggs farms that are open to the public. If you know of any others, please tell us using the add a farm form!

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! If I cannot reach them, I DON'T GO!

    Comments from a visitor on September 02, 2009: " has wonderful strawberries (June and July) and blueberries. They are not organic, but they don't use pesticides. Watch out for the occasional poison ivy plant in the blueberries. We've not tried the PYO lettuce and flowers. The farmstand has delicious corn, also pesticide-free (ie, occasional cornworm). We've been going there for ten years. Our kids love the donkeys and goats."

Eggs

Eggs: Tips, Recipes and Information

Many PYO farms keep chickens and have farm-fresh eggs to sell. Certainly, these eggs are fresher and better in every way than those from a grocery store. Many of these farms sell the eggs year round, often via an honor box

Before you leave to go to the farm:

  1. Always call or check their website or facebook page before you go to the farm - Egg supplies can vary, chickens lay fewer in cold weather.
  2. Bring a container for the eggs.  Some farms have them some not, but if you save and reuse egg cartoons, the farmers will appreciate it. It helps cut their costs - and thus yours!
  3. Bring cash - many operate honor boxes for eggs

When you get home

 To keep eggs safe, take eggs straight home and store them immediately in the refrigerator set at 35 to 40 F. Leave the eggs in their carton and place them in the back of the refrigerator, not in the door (which is the warmest part of the fridge).
