About This Farm
Jones Family Farms at Shelton runs its year as four distinct seasons: strawberries, blueberries, pumpkins and Christmas trees, each with its own field and its own visit.
What You Can Pick
- Strawberries - June
- Blueberries - summer
- Pumpkins - "mid/late September"
Christmas trees close the year, and there is a winery on the farm.
Good to Know
The blueberries are finished. In the farm's own words: "Blueberry Season has Ended... It's been a great season! We look forward to seeing you for Pumpkin Season in mid/late September."
The farm keeps a Crop Report and warns: "Our hours can change during the season due to weather and picking conditions. Please call ahead before visiting for daily information or if you have any questions."
Two picking sites, Pumpkinseed Hill Farm on Beardsley Road and Valley Farm on Walnut Tree Hill Road, share one phone number and one website.
Pro tip: the farm publishes separate Strawberry Season Tips, Pumpkin Season and Tree Season pages, including parking guidance for tree season. Read the one for the season you are going in; they are genuinely different operations on different fields.
