This page provides a detailed list of southeast New York's pick- your-
own (PYO, U-pick, pick-it-yourself) farms for everything from apples,
berries, fruit, pumpkins, vegetables to cut-you-own Christmas trees! I'm always
looking for suggestions of more farms and
events to add and feedback about any you have visited, so if you encounter any,
just click on the preceding link, as appropriate! And if you have a farm and want to
add it or correct the
information, please click on the link to "add my farm".
Remember to ALWAYS either email, call or click the link to
the farm's own website (if they have one) on the morning before you go,
to confirm hours, conditions and availability of the specific crops you want! For
wholesale quantities,
see this website:
We also have our own free and
simple, step-by-step,
illustrated
instructions on canning, freezing and drying many fruits and
vegetables, such as how to make jam,

butter, applesauce,
spaghetti
sauce, salsa,
pickles,
ketchup or

corn . If
you are looking
for Canners,
mixes, jars, pectin and other canning supplies at the best prices anywhere!

A visitor writes on July 03, 2009: "I
have been a berry picker for over 30 years. Two years ago we
discovered Lawrence Farm Orchards in Newburgh, New York. I made
plans to pick up my 80 year old to pick blueberries. I telephoned
the same morning and was told they had plenty of blueberries. After
driving a total of 2 and 1/2 hours, we found that there were no
blueberries left. Last year I called them about sour cherries. Again
they said they had plenty of sour cherries. We arrived there 2 hours
later, and no sour cherries were to be found. Two days ago I
telephoned the farm regarding strawberries. They said they had
plenty of strawberries but not many cherries. My husband and I drove
to the farm yesterday, and they had no strawberries. We have lost
quite a number of hours driving, and spent alot on gas. I would
never purchase anything from them in the future, nor do I recommend
anyone else doing so. There are many other farms that welcome your
business, are grateful to see you, and by the way, their prices are
better."

A visitor
writes on August 18, 2009: "Hello, This past weekend I visited Stone
Ridge Orchards for some raspberry picking. This farm is over an hour away
from me, but as listed on your site, it was the closest organic orchard.
When we were berry picking, I noticed a very "chemically" smell to the
berries. I sampled a few of them, and I could taste it as well. When we
payed for the berries, I asked the person working there to confirm that they
use organic methods, as stated on thier description. The person said that
they were not organic, and that "it is very hard" to grow fruit organically.
That may be true, but it doesnt stop plenty of other orchards who advertize
as organic, and actually ARE! I am very disappointed that Stone Ridge claims
to be organic, and that they are taking business away from the other true
organic and sustainable farms in the area. I am sorry that I went well out
of my way to visit them. (also, the prices were higher than organic berries
from my local supermarket, and MUCH higher than conventional berries).
Please change their listing to reflect that they are not, in fact, an
organic, sustainable orchard. Thanks!"
