The farm states it plainly: "No Cherries, Peaches, or Apples this Year due to Freeze (2026)." Blackberries are the last variety picking, at $4.99 a pound, alongside cut-your-own zinnias.

About This Farm
Homestead Farm at Poolesville has lost its entire tree fruit crop this year, and it says so in a single line at the top of its own site:
"No Cherries, Peaches, or Apples this Year due to Freeze (2026)."
What You Can Pick
- Blackberries - $4.99 per pound, the last variety of the year
- Cut-your-own zinnias
What Is Gone This Year
Cherries, peaches and apples, which in a normal year are what this farm is known for.
Good to Know
Open 9am to 4pm, Tuesday to Sunday. Closed Mondays.
Entry is paid, and the farm's rule is "Please Pay for Everything that You Pick." Cash and major cards, no cheques.
No pets, no birthday parties and no professional photography.
Pro tip: $4.99 a pound is one of very few genuine per-pound prices published anywhere in this region, and blackberries at that price are worth the drive on their own. Everything else here is a 2027 proposition.
