Fall is a time most people associate with picking produce. Going to pumpkin patches and/or apple orchards seems like a traditional thing to do that time of year. What about during the summer? There can be some incredible finds in the summer on a farm as well.
Mangos, Avocados, Watermelon, Potatoes, Sweet Corn, Oranges, Tomatoes, Cantaloupe, Papaya, Carambola (Starfruit), Peanuts and Mushrooms are just some “in season” items you may be able to pick at a farm when you visit from June through August.
U-Pick farms are an amazing experience. They are also something fun to do when you are out of ideas of what to do to keep the kids entertained or if you just want to pick some fresh fruit. Have fun finding your summer sweetness!

*ORGANIZATION TIP*
Keep your findings grouped together in bins or bags for easier sorting and cleaning once you get home. If you feel you have an abundance of something put it in a separate pile to freeze for later use.
