Alford Family Farm
U-Pick
Our U-Pick blueberry and blackberry orchards were the first crops we established and remains the highlight of our farm, with close to 4,000 blueberry and blackberry bushes that produce from May to July. In March of 2020 we introduced strawberries to our U-Pick farm. This crop gave us the opportunity to extend our open season and has been met with so much enthusiasm by our farm family, it will remain one of our U-Pick crops for years to come.

Pick Your Own FAQs
What time of day is best? The morning is best both for your comfort and the fruit. The sugar in the berry plants goes back into the ground in the heat, so fruit picked in the morning is sweeter.
Do we need reservations? No! It's first come, first serve, so get here early for the strawberries.
What's the best way to transport them? If you are driving more than an hour or you are keeping them in your trunk, produce needs to be kept chilled in a cooler with enough ice to chill but not freeze.
What equipment is provided? We provide buckets and bucket liners.
