I love going to “pick-your-own” farms to pick strawberries! Growing up, my great-grandparents had a farm in Michigan, which had numerous apple trees. It was fun picking the apples off the trees and hearing the “crunch” from biting into a freshly-picked apple. Dee-licious!
If you live in the south, a fun date idea is to consider a day or weekend trip to a farm in Atlanta, Georgia. Spending the day on a farm is a great experience!
Here is a calendar of months that are best to pick fruits & nuts in Georgia:
July through October
Apples
October through December
Pecans
April through July
Strawberries and Blueberries
May through August
Peaches
Gone pickin’?
Have you ever gone to a “pick your own” farm? Where was it? How was your experience? Leave your comment below:
Our family loves u-pick farms!! We were disappointed when we moved to Florida and realized our area didn’t have any…but hey maybe we just need to take a weekend trip to Georgia next year to get our u-pick fix!
