Before you drive
Before you head into the field
U Pick is simple, but it works best when visitors treat the farm like a real growing space. The fields are open only when the crop is ready, and some rows need to stay closed so the plants keep producing. Our team will point you toward the right area when you arrive.
A few small choices make the visit easier. Wear closed toe shoes, bring water, keep children close, and leave pets at home. If you have questions about current picking conditions, call before driving to Flemington.
