Many farms in the Nashville area allow visitors to pick their own produce. Right now, strawberries are in season, with more berries and fruits on the way. Before you head out to a farm, check its social media page for hours and availability. Bring cash, as some farms don’t accept cards, and a bag for produce. Here are some of our favorite you-pick farms!
Check this large Bellevue farm’s website and social media pages for pop-up, you-pick strawberry picking. Otherwise, you can find fresh strawberries at its market. The market contains heaps of excellent produce and other farm goodies. It’s also a great place to snag lunch.
Also located in Bellevue, this farm currently offers you-pick flowers and strawberries. The farm’s CSA season begins soon, too, if you want to support them beyond a carton of strawberries.
This woman-owned Smyrna farm is in week two of strawberry picking. Flowers are available for picking, too. I recommend visiting on Farm Fridays, where you can find local vendors in addition to fresh produce and flowers.
Strawberry picking is in full swing at this Castalian Springs farm, located just outside Lebanon. This farm also grows blackberries, blueberries, peaches, and raspberries, which will be available later in the year.
Delvin Farms says this year’s strawberry crop is its best! Located in College Grove, right outside Arrington, this farm announces picking dates on social media. Starting in May, the farm hosts the Arrington farmers market every Wednesday.
You can currently pick strawberries at this Spring Hill farm, with blueberry season right around the corner. Blackberries and raspberries will be available later in the summer, too. The farm’s store sells pie kits and jam, and if you’re lucky, two very friendly dogs will come say hi.
Bradley Kountry Acres is located in Cottontown, and strawberries have just ripened! Buy plants for your garden while you’re there, and blueberries and blackberries will be available for picking later in the summer.
Take a day trip to the Kentucky border to visit this woman-owned farm, where, in addition to you-pick strawberries, you can find flowers, meats, fresh produce, and homemade ice cream. Plus, it’s open every day of the week!
Breedan’s Orchard kicks off their pick-your-own-peaches season on June 24. You-pick reservations sell out fast, so keep an eye out for when tickets become available. They have a great market and frequent events throughout the year.
