Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is your farm organic?
A: No, it's not organic. We have a small area outside of our PYO farm where we're growing organic apple trees, but for the majority of our farm we follow low-spray & IPM* practices.
*Integrated Pest Management (IPM) is the management of agricultural and horticultural pests that minimizes the use of chemicals and emphasizes natural and low-toxicity methods (such as the use of crop rotation and beneficial predatory insects). The goal of IPM is not necessarily to eradicate or eliminate pests, but to strengthen and stabilize the landscape (ecosystem) so that conditions are favorable for plants but unfavorable for pests.
Q: Should I wash my produce before I eat it?
A: Yes. This is always a good practice, no matter where you get your produce from! Please remember you must also pay for all produce before eating it.
Q: Can I bring my dog?
A: Due to federal health & safety regulations, pets are not allowed on our farm.
Q: Can we have a picnic?
A: No, picnics & BBQs are not permitted. Once you checkout and pay for your produce, you're welcome to park and use our picnic tables near the farm store.
Q: Do you have bathrooms?
A: Yes. We have two bathrooms available inside our farm store, as well as several porta potties throughout the orchard.
Q: Do you offer hayrides?
A: No, we do not offer hayrides at this time.
Q: Do you accept credit cards?
A: Yes, we accept all major credit and debit cards, as well as cash. We do not accept personal checks, EBT, or farmers market nutrition program coupons.
