Looking for a local, pick-your-own farm in Cleveland, Akron and northeast Ohio? Scroll down this page and you will see the U-Pick farms in Cleveland, Akron and northeast Ohio,
sorted by county. Those that offer organic or sustainably grown produce are identified by the words "organic" and/or "sustainable" in Green, next to their name
(see "What does Organic mean?").
The U-pick crops they offer follow the name of the farm. To search the page for
a specific crop, use Ctrl-F (or on an ipad or Mac, use their "search on this
page" function) If they have a website, the name will be in blue and underlined;
click on it and it will open their website. If you find anything outdated or
inaccurate, see the customer and farmer menus (as appropriate) at the top menu bar to submit updates and corrections and help me keep each current!
New! As inflation remains high, see this page for
reliable (tested) brands of generic canning lids at lower
costs, and cost-saving measures for
getting fruit and vegetables and home canning.
If you are having a hard time
finding canning lids, I've used these, and they're a great price & ship in 2 days.
New! Road tripping and camping is a great way to have a fun, safe and inexpensive
family trip. The national and state parks and monuments are open, and campgrounds usually cost between $10 and $40 per night. September to November is the best
camping weather. See our new website Road Tripping and Camping.com for tips, tricks,
guides, checklists and info about parks, monuments and other places to visit.
New! We just went live with our latest website,
FunFactoryTours.com - As they name implies, you can find a fun factory tour, including chocolate, automobiles, historical forts and sites, famous buildings,
Active Federal facilities even fun geology: like fossils and volcanic areas
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! This website is supported by purchases you make

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!

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."

A
visitor writes on July 14, 2013: "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 July 24, 2009: "This is a hidden gem. The owners are
great people. Great berries, some of the best I have tasted. "

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

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! "

A visitor writes on September 28, 2013:
"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."
