Where to find Pick-Your-Own Fruit

A few days ago, we visited again an orchard. Now it's high season for apples and pumpkins, but I wanted something else.


I was looking for fall raspberries and I didn't mind that it a takes awhile to pick three pounds. The weather was beautiful, I was with a friend and we enjoyed being outside:




To find a pick-your-own farm, I look for ads in my daily newspaper, or I ask the farmers at the weekly farmers market in my town for an address. Another option is of course the Internet.
