Looking for a local, pick-your-own farm in Atlanta's NW burbs: North Fulton, Cobb, Forsyth area in Georgia? Scroll down this page and you will see the U-Pick farms in Atlanta's NW burbs: North Fulton, Cobb, Forsyth area in Georgia,
sorted by county. Those that offer organic or sustainably grown produce are identified by the words "organic" and/or "sustainable" in Green, next to their name
(see "What does Organic mean?").
The U-pick crops they offer follow the name of the farm. To search the page for
a specific crop, use Ctrl-F (or on an ipad or Mac, use their "search on this
page" function) If they have a website, the name will be in blue and underlined;

inaccurate, see the customer and farmer menus (as appropriate) at the top menu bar to submit updates and corrections and help me keep each current!
New! As inflation remains high, see this page for
reliable (tested) brands of generic canning lids at lower
costs, and cost-saving measures for
getting fruit and vegetables and home canning.

finding canning lids, I've used these, and they're a great price & ship in 2 days.

Active Federal facilities even fun geology: like fossils and volcanic areas
Note: Beware Google's AI search answers - it MAKES UP NONSENSE. Also 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. 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anything out-of-date, wrong or not working -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! This website is supported by purchases you make

What's in season in April 2026, and other timely information:
Notes for April 2026: Spring is here! The very brief
Asparagus and
Rhubarb season should be starting right now in many
areas! Cherry picking and
Strawberry season is here or almost here. It
started in February in Florida, Texas, southern California and a few other areas of the Deep South; then March along the
Gulf coast, April in the Deep South and west coast, May through much of the country, and June in northern areas.
Blueberries are next, about a month later. Of course,
cool weather crops, greens should be available almost everywhere. Check your area's
crop calendar (see this page) and call your local farms for
seasonal updates.
Are carpenter bees boring holes into your house, shed or barn? There is a simple non-toxic solution!
NEW! Start your own tomato, pepper, squash and other vegetable plants from seed - It's easy and
costs about 50 cents per plant.
Also see our Master list of tomato varieties,
with descriptions, details and links to ordering the seeds.

We also have
home canning, 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.
If you have any questions or suggestions,
feel free to write me! It is easy to
make your own ice cream,
even gelato, or low fat or low sugar ice cream - see this page. Also note,
there are many copycat website listing U-pick farms now. They have all
copied their information from here and usually do not ever update. Since
2002, I've been updating the information every day but Christmas; so if you see
anything wrong or outdated, please

gem right in my backyard."

honey."
