Note: Beware the copycat websites like the one that stole our name and uses .farm extension: they copied my work and do NOT even update the info! I make updates EVERY day. They use tech tricks to get higher rankings, but have many more inaccuracies and out-dated info. Obviously, I cannot check every farm every day, but I do check as many as I can every day, and respond to all requests.  They don't. Don't support the scammers!

Remember to always check with the farm's own website or Facebook page before you go - or call or email them if they don't have a website or Facebook page. Conditions at the farms and crops can change literally overnight, so if you want to avoid a wasted trip out there - check with the farm directly before you go! And if you know of any farms I missed and want to add a farm, please let me know!   I'm making updates for this year as fast as I can - if you find anything out-of-date, wrong or not working - please let me know!

What's in season in December 2024, and other timely information:

Notes for December 2024: Crop growth is slowing down, except for Christmas tree farms and if you live in southern California, southern Texas, Florida or along the Gulf coast where citrus are starting, and believe it or not, the blueberry and strawberry season in those areas is about to begin. See your state harvest calendar . This year, much of the country is still seeing mild weather, so lettuce, peas, broccoli, cabbage  and other greens are thriving.  And this is a good time to get a canner and  learn how to preserve foods for the winter, like canning some applesauce, apple butter or jam, which make great gifts. As do your own homemade specialty liqueurs! How about homemade cranberry sauce or a pumpkin pie made from a real pumpkin for the holidays? See our comprehensive list of easy home canning, jam and jelly making, preserving, drying and freezing directions. You can access recipes and other resources from the drop down menus at the top of the page or the site search. A fun winter activity is to make your own ice cream, even gelato, or low fat or low sugar ice cream - see this page. If you have any questions or suggestions, feel free to write me!

Valentine's Day - February 14 - See this website for Valentines Day history, facts and Amazon's top picks for fast, easy, inexpensive gifts for the man, woman or children in your life!

Easter will be April 4, 2021 - if you want to take your children to a free Easter egg hunt - see our companion website to find a local Easter Egg hunt!

    A visitor writes on August 05, 2013: "My family and I just went to the Blue Jay Orchard today and I was just amazed at how nice and friendly the people there were today. We were greeted with smiles and they talked to my little one who was being shy. The lady at the table took us out to the best blueberry bushes and showed us the easiest way to pick the berries. Afterwards we talked about the farm and I told them I would be back in the fall to pick apples and peaches. I wanted to thank this website for making it easy for me to find this farm. I had called other farms around my area and they had all been picked out or were closed today. It was such a wonderful day!"
    A visitor writes on July 09, 2013: "I just had to respond to the comment about Blue Jay Orchard. My daughter and I went there in July 2012 to pick blueberries and had a fantastic time. The owners were exceptionally kind and helpful. We ended up picking more blueberries than we thought we would, and I realized I didn't have enough cash with me. They said, "Pay us what you have with you and send us a check for the remainder." How nice is that? (My daughter's best friend invited her to go berry picking the next day, so she ended up going there again and brought the check to the owner.) I would add that with any farm, it isn't unreasonable for the owner to say they aren't sure if they will be open for picking on a certain day because they don't know what the weather will be like or if the crops will be picked over by then. Really, Blue Jay Orchard was awesome."
    Comments from a visitor on August 02, 2011: "Very unwelcoming. One of the worst experiences of blueberry picking I've ever had. I'd like to say the berries were delicious, but I wasn't even allowed into the orchard by the horribly rude owners. My family and I ended up arriving an hour after they closed. Had they politely told us to leave it would have been fine although disappointing. Instead they essentially told us to get lost. Even more insulting, they still had people picking berries as they turned us away. A couple paying for the berries suggested that we could just pick until the other woman in the orchard was done, but the old man quickly shot us down and sent us away with a "We're open 8 - 1, Tuesday through Saturday, but we aren't really sure if we will be open Saturday anyway." How they expect people to show up before they close when the farm itself doesn't know the times, I really don't know. Overall, a very DISAPPOINTING and HORRIBLE experience. My family and I won't be returning there any time soon."

    Comments from a visitor on September 03, 2011: "The farm is beautiful, the family is extremely welcoming and knowledgeable on every piece of produce they sell. They have so many varieties of garlic my pocketbook wasn't big enough to buy all of what I wanted to buy! Everything was priced very fairly. GREAT looking garlic, so beautiful and cared for extremely well. We went early in the summer, I surprised my husband with a road trip and wouldn't tell him where we were going till we got there. He loves garlic, and I was shocked to find such an amazingly cool place in Ohio. It was a bit of a drive from Twinsburg, but WELL WORTH IT!! I bought extra garlic to give as gifts to other garlic lovers I know, but it is sooooo good we are keeping it for ourselves! Looking forward to going there again and would ENTHUSIASTICALLY tell anyone thinking about heading out there to stop thinking about it and get on over there, it is totally worth it!!!!!!! 5 stars out of 5, my rating."

    "We went to Wolff's Blueberry Farm on 7/13/13 and will definitely return, maybe even again in about 2 weeks! The father and son running the show were very cordial and welcoming. There were many other families with children there in addition to us and they welcomed the children. The blueberry bushes and simply abundant with berries right now, but not at their peak of ripeness yet. In about 2 weeks you will probably be able to get at least 2 pounds of berries from a single bush. We ended up with about 10 pounds of berries that we picked in about 1 hour. It was wonderful! Convenient to get to, parking is convenient and the price of $1.89/pound is fantastic! "
    Comments from a visitor on July 18, 2012:
    "They are not closed yet this season. A little rain on July 4th and more last week saved the crop so they're still going. I was still able to get some really good berries today and there are plenty more. The owner tells me Saturday July 21 will probably be their last day this season."
    Comments from a visitor on July 02, 2012:
    "Wonderful place to pick blueberries. We've gone to this farm for 4 years and LOVE it. The family is extremely friendly, the berries are outstanding, the price is very reasonable, the berries are easily accessible with parking within feet of the blueberry bushes. Unfortunately the drought this year has caused them to close already, but we were able to get 24 pounds of berries last week. Sorry the season was so short :0( Hopefully 2013 will be a better year."

    Comments from a visitor on June 30, 2010: "Went to this farm in Summit County to pick peas. The staff put up with us even though it was pouring rain, and provided a hose to clean off our shoes. I don't recommend picking peas in the rain, but they made it an enjoyable and worthwhile visit, especially since we drove almost an hour to get there! I also liked their website, and they were good about answering phone questions. "

    Comments from a visitor on June 14, 2010: "My boyfriend and I visited this farm last Sunday to pick strawberries and we definitely plan on coming back to verify out the other crops they have available. The owners were very nice and friendly, and we even got a little tour of the farm and heard about the different things they have available. When we were ready to pick berries, we were shown where to go and then left on our own, which was nice. They provide pints for you to fill up, but we brought our own container to bring the berries home in, and the owners mentioned that although they provide containers for transport, it would be nice if more people brought their own containers, so that's just a suggestion. The row of strawberries looked excellent and they tasted even better! But most of all, we really enjoyed ourselves and we were glad to see friendly farmers. I think this would be an excellent place to bring kids to have them learn a little bit about farming and have fun picking their own crops. Also, depending on where you're coming from, the drive is really nice...we drove on different roads there and back, and both routes were very scenic. I called about 2 hours ahead and spoke with the farmer, and he said depending on the weather they would be open all afternoon for pick-your-own berries. When we got there, they told us that pretty much any time they are home, they are open, but it's a good idea to call first anyway. I will definitely be returning throughout the summer! "

    "I read a poor review on this site and was skeptical of this farm. I went there anyway and everyone there was wonderful. My family enjoyed it and their staff was approachable and pleasant. I would recommend this farm to others. "
    Comments from a visitor on September 30, 2011:
    "We went to Kuner Farms today. We thought there was a chance we couldn't pick due to weather. That was OK. The owner is extremely rude. She completely embarrassed me in front of my children because I found a small hole in an apple and tried to switch it with one that didn't have a hole. I would not recommend this farm to anyone."
