Pick Your Own Fruit at New Jersey Farms and Orchards

(page 1 of 2)

peachThe summer season is close to winding down, but there's still lots of pick-your-own fruit available at New Jersey farms and orchards. Here's where you can go to find peaches, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, and more. And remember, the apple and pumpkin season is right around the corner, too!

Always call the farm before you go for crop updates, weather conditions, fees, picking times, and to make sure the farm isn't "picked-out" and closed for picking as a result. These crops are coming to the end of their seasons, so end dates could be at any time.

About This Blog

There's nothing artificial in these blog posts from New Jersey's hardest-working women. Where to go, what to do, and how to do it—with kids—are all part of the mix.

Meet Our Bloggers!

Judy Grover is the editor of New Jersey Family and the mom of two rambunctious boys, who, she admits, completely run the household.

Anna Sandler lives happily ever after with her Jersey-raised husband and three NYC-born children in the land of jug handles and disco fries. She loves baking and crafting with her kids, even if everything they make doesn't turns out Pinterest-perfect. Anna has never met a holiday she doesn't want to celebrate, and enjoys sharing ideas for everyday fun (indoor beach party, anyone?), as well as how to commemorate bigger moments from birthdays to first days of school.

Renée Sagiv Riebling is a mom of two who never irons (Quick! Grab it out of the dryer while it's still hot instead!) or cooks anything that requires dicing, but she does love sweet sticky faces and family outings (check out her Jersey Jaunts column for ideas). She understands all too well about the minutiae of mothering, and her blog posts focus on parenting pointers--from experts or experience.
