Good to Know

Dogs are welcome, leashed and sociable. And in the farm's own words: "Our dog Doug will be off-leash during the weekend. He's very good with kids and other dogs, though he does bark a lot."

The farm is self-serve Monday to Friday. There is a self-checkout for cards, and: "If you are uncomfortable with tech, please bring your checkbook, or a variety of bills so you can make exact change."

Professional photography costs $20 a session, paid by leaving money in the barn through the self-serve slot.

Pro tip: fourteen hours a day, every day, until the frost is the longest picking window in this region by a wide margin. Go on a weekday evening when the farm is unstaffed and the field is yours.
