2017 Guide to Summer Pick-Your-Own Farms in Ontario

Jul 06, 2017

Take a bite out of summer by picking your own fruits and vegetables! Bring your family to the closest farm that offers pick-your-own to see how Ontario fruits and vegetables are grown in the Greenbelt.

Due to the persitent rain and lack of sun, there are less pick-your-own farms open this year and some have less options available for picking. Make sure to double check before you visit a farm.
