U-Pick
Bounty
Once upon a time, the backyard garden
was the place to get the freshest, best
tasting fruits and vegetables around. These
days most us don’t have the time or
inclination to do all that planning, digging, rock picking, planting, or weeding, even
when the harvest holds the promise of making it all worthwhile. Thankfully, you can find
locally grown, freshly harvested foods at many convenient locations, from roadside
stands to farmers markets and even mainstream grocery stores. You can even skip all
the preparatory work of gardening and jump right into the harvest by visiting one (or
more) of the many Pick-Your-Own farms in the Finger Lakes region.
Choosing to harvest some of your own food offers many benefits – you get the very
freshest product possible, with the added bonus of being able to divert a few choice
morsels from the picking basket into your mouth. When you pick fruit fresh off the vine,
bush, plant or tree, you select it at its ripest. You handle it with care, taking it home to
eat fresh, bake into a pie, crisp, cobbler or buckle, or preserve in some wonderful way
for later enjoyment – jellies, jams, marmalades, compotes, or simply canned or frozen.
The memory of summer sunshine and a pleasant visit to the country come back each
time you sample what you’ve saved.
In addition to getting a premium product, performing the harvest task yourself saves
you money. Farmers save on harvesting expenses, and can pass that savings on to
you; and, since you are buying direct from the producer, they get a bigger share of the
food dollar. Visiting the farm offers the added benefit of being able to meet and speak
with the grower and learn about the crop and production methods.
In our region, you can begin picking strawberries and sweet cherries in June,
continue the harvest in July with blueberries, raspberries, sour cherries, peaches and
the first apples, add pears in August, plums and grapes in September - and you’ll keep
finding some of these fruits right into October. If you freeze fruits, consider partially
filling bags at the beginning of the season and then adding different fruits as the
season progresses. Try one of these collections in a baked treat mentioned above
and you’ll create something pleasing to the eye and palate.
Although fruit is generally what most people envision when they consider U-Pick
crops, flowers and a nice selection of vegetables are also available. A special delight
to begin the season is asparagus in May. Next you’ll find beans, peas and herbs
beginning in June, then cucumbers, tomatoes, shallots, leeks and summer squash
ripening in July, followed by peppers and potatoes in August, and all but asparagus
still available into September. Then, as a spectacular end to the season, pumpkins fill
out and color up for picking in October.
When you choose locally produced foods, you get fresher, and therefore more
nutritious, foods. You also support the local economy as well as contribute directly
to farm income, helping keep local farms economically viable.

U-Pick Tips
Plan your trip:
•
Call before going: confirm crop availability, hours of operation, location and directions,
growers tips or requirements, ask if children are allowed or restricted from activities, if applicable
•
Dress for success: wear comfortable clothes you don’t mind getting dirty or stained, including
sensible shoes, pants, long sleeve shirt, hat, gloves, sunglasses, sunscreen (don’t miss the back of the neck)
•
Bring picking containers if not provided by grower: small and shallow are generally best,
and make sure you can transport whatever you pick home without damaging it
•
Check the weather forecast
•
Remember mornings are usually cooler picking weather
•
Bring a camera if it’s a family outing
•
Ask a friend to join you – share the expense and the fun
Special suggestions for children:
•
Consider bringing snacks, drinks, hand wipes, and smaller picking containers for their smaller-size hands
At the farm:
•
Read and follow all farm instructions and rules
•
Stay away from all areas that are not for public access
•
Treat trees and plants with care: don’t walk on plants, push through bushes, or climb trees
•
Be safe: keep children off ladders and out of trees, and don’t throw fruit
•
Check produce before picking it; some farms require you to buy what you pick
•
Don’t litter
•
If vehicles drive on the farm, be aware of them
