Guidelines and Tips for Picking Your Own Fruits and Vegetables

To ensure a safe experience, and promote a family-friendly atmosphere

• You simply pay per pound for what you pick. There is no entrance, admission, or parking fee.
• You do not need to make a reservation to pick your own fruit. View the list above of fruit and vegetables ready to pick.
• Pick Your Own hours are the same as the Farm Market hours.
• Bring your own containers or use the containers provided by Brecknock Orchard. The empty cost of the containers is $2-$3 depending on the size of the container. All containers should be brought with you to check-in so we can record the weight of each  empty container.
• Fruit Express Wagons are available for you to use while picking fruit. Please return wagons to the designated area when you are finished picking.
• Stay parked in the designated parking areas. No vehicles are permitted in the field or orchard.
• Dress comfortably, sneakers are recommended, as you will be walking on gravel and grass pathways.
• Free bottled water is provided, 1 per picking customer. Drink plenty of water.
• Purchase all picked fruit before you eat it. NO eating is permitted in the fields or orchards.
• Children are welcome. Before you start picking explain to those with you how to identify ripe fruit. If you need help, please ask our knowledgeable staff.
• Do not climb on or shake the trees, plants, or bushes.
