You’ll know you’re here

The farm explains itself as you go.

Look for the signs, the buckets, and the little Park ’n’ Pick setup. The handmade wayfinding is part of how the place works—not decoration added for visitors.

From the family

“The soul of the farm is family. Ours and the people who come as children, and then bring their kids.....Its a generational thing.”
— Simone Kilpatrick

The family archive keeps showing the same things across the years: children, buckets, the little kiosk, and another summer in the rows.

Take your time

Picking is only part of the visit.

Shade, picnic tables, grass, old trees, and room to sit for a while show up again and again in the farm’s own photo archive—and in what visitors remember about being here.

Before you come

A few useful things.

Bring a box

Bring a larger container, cooler, or box to transfer fruit into before you leave.

Check the status

Picking conditions, availability, hours, and price can change with the crop.

Give yourself time

Expect a real outdoor farm: sun, shade, grass, hills, weather, and room to wander.

A place with some years on it

The little kiosk keeps showing up.

It has been part of the arrival for decades. Signs, payment instructions, buckets, and newer conveniences change around it; the basic idea stays recognizable.
