U-Pick Berries and More
It's berry season! Did you know that a few of our KCFC Member Farmers offer U-pick options for berries? This is a great way to see precisely where you food comes from and how it was grown. And you can pick with confidence knowing that our farmers grow according to our KCFC pledges so you're getting the healthiest fruits for your family.
Make time to visit one of these farms, take friends and family along, and enjoy berries that are the freshest of the fresh! Also, U-pick sometimes provides a better bang for your buck, cost-wise.
Contact each of these farms directly to find out what kind of berries they have, when their u-pick programs are open, and what the costs are. And get ready to soak up some sun and enjoy the delicious fruits of your labor!
