Pick-Your-Own

What’s In for Pick Your Own for CSA Members

  • Heavy frost happened so many crops are toasted now
  • The pyo is open every day during daylight hours.
  • The picking limits are per week.  Members with biweekly shares can pick biweekly and observe the weekly limits for the week they pick.  If you don’t have time to pick everything you want to pick within your weekly limits you can come back any time during the week to collect the rest.
  • Members with delivered shares who aren’t able to collect pyo regularly can pick double the limits when they come

Herbs – take a handful of each. Cilantro, Oregano, Peppermint, Sage, Spearmint, Thyme, Winter Savory, Parsley (Curly and Flat)

Main season Flowers – There maybe a few hardy varieties left

Cherry tomatoes – We’re not sure yet if the cover protected the ones well under, probably not since it got down to 24 degrees

Pick-Your-Own crops are included as part of your share! They are available to pick any day of the week during daylight hours. Check the box to the left to see what is available. When you come to the farm, you can check the picking locations and weekly limits on the brown-and-yellow sign near the distribution tent. Containers and clippers are provided, though you may bring your own if you wish.

Each year we offer an abundance of Pick-Your-Own (PYO) crops at the farm. Most of your share will be harvested and washed for you to pick up at the farm or in your delivered box. However, shares also include PYO crops to give farm members the opportunity to get out in the field and pick items like flowers, beans, peas, herbs, and more.

Whether you pick up your share here at the farm or have a delivered box share, we encourage all members to come and enjoy the farm!

PYO crops will vary with the season.

  • Sugar snap and snow peas
