Pre-Picked Pricing, Upick Fields & Upick Protocols
New Fall Hours
Open Wednesday to Sunday - Closed Mondays and Tuesdays
Vegetables: Our own farm grown bi-coloured corn is now available in the Market. We also have fresh dill bundles, garlic, nugget potatoes, artichokes and zucchini.
Berries: All of our Krause pre-picked berries are picked by hand, not machine. Our strawberries are grown in soil, not substrate, which produce better tasting berries. Find our berries along with other local grown fruits, inside the Market at the Berry Counter. Berry availability changes as the crops ripen throughout the summer.
Check our Instagram Page each morning to see which upick fields, if any, are open. We do not update the information here each day. We share the news daily on instagram & facebook.
What Upick Fields are Open:
Upick Pumpkin Patch Opens Sept 21st
Upick strawberries are open. Please check instagram or facebook each morning and again in the afternoon before you come as the fields can get picked out or close early due to bad weather.
Upick blueberries are now closed for the season.
Upick Raspberries are now closed for the season.
Upick Blackberries are now closed for the season.
How our Upick System Works:
UPICK IS FIRST COME FIRST PICK, WE DO NOT TAKE RESERVATIONS
We do not charge admission to the farm like many others do, BUT, if you want to pick berries, then all guests 3 years of age and older, must pre-purchase containers from the berry booth before entering the field. If there are four of you, then all four of you must purchase a container. This is not new, this is our 5th season using this system. The price of the container includes the berries you pick into it.
We do not allow outside containers - but we do encourage guests to return with their clean Krause Berry Farms containers all summer long. A small discount is given at the berry booth when you check in for the medium and large Krause containers - not for the small green baskets or blue containers.
After checking in, staff will direct guests to the berry fields to pick.
The container you purchase or return with is to be filled ONE TIME ONLY per pick. Please, be respectful of our farm, our staff, and other guests. DO NOT pour your picked berries into other bags or containers you have brought with you, then fill the basket again. If you wish to pick more berries after filling your container, please purchase another container from the berry booth.
REMEMBER TO PLEASE Follow us on instagram to stay updated on field openings, early closures each day, upick conditions or waffle topping changes. We post updates when they happen - always check instagram or facebook before you visit us.

*Berry Important Note*
As soon as you get home, put your berries in the refrigerator. You can't leave them in the garage overnight. Our berries are more perishable than those imported, because they are picked fresh and not green. There also aren't any added preservatives for freshness added.
The sooner you process them, the better the flavour.
If you didn't get enough berries in the summer...
We sell them frozen year round inside the Market until December, and from The Porch (open daily) January to May.
You can also shop online and schedule a pick up from the Porch January to May.
