Pick-Your-Own | Saturday & Sunday
Flowers, summer apples, peaches, tomatoes and more will be in season.
We are offering a Fruit & Flower Fest Special: Sip N' Clip! Each per-person ticket includes a glass jar for Pick-Your-Own flowers & one 9oz pour of any Treasury Cider on tap (hard cider - contains alcohol. Must be age 21+ to consume).
If you'd like to participate in Pick-Your-Own, you must purchase a reservation online through our website in advance. We do not take reservations over the phone, email or social media messenger. Reservations directly correlate to how much ripe fruit we have–purchasing a reservation guarantees that there will be enough fruit for you when you arrive.
To provide the most accurate reservation availability, we can only post summer reservations roughly 3 days in advance. They will be posted by Thursday August 20th for Fruit & Flower Fest here: Pick-Your-Own Reservations.
