Many farms also sell pre-picked produce that farm stands on the property. Before you head out for a day of picking check the farm website or call ahead. Weather conditions, rainfall, and other factors can cause normal harvest dates to shift. Farmers can tell you in in advance about picking conditions so you pick what you came to get!
