PICK-YOUR-OWN
RASPBERRIES
Come out and pick your own raspberries!
We will supply the baskets for you to pick the berries with and take them home in. You will pay for your basket at the entrance stand. Once you are done picking, you can load your berries into your car! Feel free to reference our tips and recipes below!
Additional Information:
-
Our berries are as fresh as they come, so they will not last as long as store bought berries. Be sure to plan accordingly when you pick your baskets!
-
There is grass between the raspberry rows, so you won't get muddy in rainy or wet conditions. We encourage customers to check picking conditions and berry status information before they come to the farm.
**WE DO NOT HAVE PRE-PICKED RASPBERRIES**

Picking Tips & After Care
AFTER CARE
-
Store the berries in the coolest part of your home (refrigerator, basement, garage floor, etc.)
-
Do not rinse off berries until you're ready to use them
-
Pour them into shallow pans and remove any mushed, soft, or rotting berries
-
Grade your berries -- use ripest ones first
Freezing Raspberries
-
Rinse the berries in a bowl of cold water. Gently stir them with your fingers to remove any dirt or bugs. Scoop the berries out of the water, and let the water drain off. Sprinkle with sugar. Then pour the berries into freezer bags or containers leaving some room for expansion. Put into freezer immediately. Berries can also be crushed, sweetened, and frozen.
Pick Ripe Berries
-
Select firm, fully red, ripe berries
-
Raspberries DO NOT ripen after they are picked.
-
Look carefully for berries under the leaves and along both edges of the row
-
The bushes do have thorns, so be careful when grabbing the bush to look for berries.
Using Frozen Raspberries
-
Thaw only until berries can be broken apart. Serve while fruit still has ice crystals for fresh-like flavor!
How to Pick
-
A fully ripe raspberry will gently fall into your hand when you pull on it slightly, without effort
-
When picked, raspberry fruit detaches from the receptacle, so the fruit will have a "cupped" shape cavity at its center
-
If you need to tug at the berry, it is not ready to be picked!
-
Pick thoroughly, making sure you are getting all the berries that are ripe.
