An afternoon picking berries or tomatoes makes for a fun, back-to-basics family outing and an economical starting point to any canning or preserving project. Every Saturday throughout the growing season, Serendipity Farms opens its gates to home chefs, canners, kids and anyone else (but please no dogs in the field) who wants to grab a kid-sized basket or a 5-gallon bucket and pick fresh, perfectly ripe organic produce right off the vine. We grow different crops in different microclimates, so the location of the U-Pick stand depends on what’s ripening. At the height of the season several of the U-Picks below are happening at the same time. Look for signs on the road directing you to the farm.
