Marions and Boysens are just starting and should be good picking by this Sunday or Monday (also $1.20/lb). Our summer Raspberry patch is in full production, but is getting picked heavily so they can be slow picking depending on your timing. We also have Spinach and Swiss Chard in the Organic Garden and Farm Fresh Honey for $12/quart. We currently have WE-PICK Fresh to your order Blueberries at $18 per10lb bag (equal to a very full 12 pint flat) and WHOLESALE at $1.70 per lb for 50 lbs or more. These fresh picked blueberries are GAP (Good Agricultural Practices) Certified. We also have fresh picked to order Pie Cherries for $28/12 pint flat. {Please note that gooseberries and currants in Oregon are susceptible to a small fruit fly larvae. They are not harmful, but be warned that they may be present in some of our gooseberries and currants because we will not spray toxic chemicals on your food. They are not present in any of our other berries or fruit}.
We also currently have Duke and Aurora BLUEBERRY PLANTS for sale in one gallon pots for $5 and in three gallon pots for $12, also Marion, Boysenberry, and Caroline Raspberry plants for $4.
From July through October we will have U-PICK several varieties of Blueberries, Marion berries, Boysenberries, Currants, Gooseberries, Chester Thornless Blackberries, late season Raspberries, Hardy Kiwis, and Elderberries. In the Orchard we have u-pick Pears, Plums, Asian Pears, Apples, Pie Cherries, and Quince. In the Garden we have an assortment of u-pick Organic Vegetables (including corn, beans, peas, squash, and greens), Pumpkins, Lavender, Oregano, Rosemary, and u-cut Flowers. We also have quarts of farm fresh Honey.
We are located in a peaceful and pictorial setting on the edge of 50 acres of woods back off the main road, about 25 miles south of Portland. We use earth friendly farming practices. U-pick Vegetables are all Organic. We use only Organic certified insecticides/fungicides directly on our fruit bushes and trees, but we do use some inorganic fertilizers and limited weed control on the ground around our berry bushes and fruit trees. Please remember to bring cash (preferred) or a check because we are not able to accept credit/debit cards. You can u-pick into your own containers, or we have buckets you can use. Sorry dogs are not allowed in the u-pick berry fields due to Dept of Agriculture sanitation rules.
