- Sunflowers - the path opened around 12 August
- Blueberries - finished for the season
What It Costs
In the farm's own words, "We price by the container":
- Blackberries: $8 a pint, $14 a quart, $25 for a two-quart white basket
- Cut-your-own zinnias: $15 a bundle bouquet, mix and match
- Sunflowers: $1 a bloom
Good to Know
The farm posts a "Fresh From the Field Update" by the week, with field conditions written out plainly. Read that before travelling.
There is a published photography policy, so check it before bringing a camera crew.
Pro tip: $14 a quart for blackberries is not cheap, and the farm is upfront about it. What you are buying is a well-run field with fruit actually on the canes in late August, which after this spring is worth something.
