Berry Picking Fields

Emma Lea Farms provides a variety of berries for picking, including strawberries, raspberries, tayberries, black currants, blackberries, and blueberries.

  • Bring hats, boots, sunscreen, and bottled water to stay comfortable in any weather.
  • Purchase new buckets provided by the farm for picking, and remember that plastic bags are not allowed in the fields.
  • Check in at the white tent by the main farm market and sanitize hands before entering the fields.
  • Only pick in designated areas and do not eat berries in the fields to ensure health and safety.
