It's that time of year again... what's more fun than a family outing that involves sweet treats AND coming home with more than you started with? We've gathered the delicious info on lots of local farms around Burlington to Hillsborough offering U-pick hours for strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, and more!
Before you head out with your picking baskets, aways make sure to check with your farm-of-interest directly to make sure they aren't experiencing weather-related issues or aren't temporarily picked out (it happens!)
And... if you know of a PYO farm that didn't make the list, please let me know!
