Helpful tips for berry picking:
- Call ahead to make sure the farm is open and that there are berries.
- Find out if the farm is cash only or if cards are accepted.
- Arrive early, fields can be picked over by noon and the sun is much hotter in the afternoon.
- Bring sunscreen and hats. Berry patches are usually in full sun.
