Questions pickers ask
If your answer is not here, email megan@purelandorganic.com. We are a two-person operation, so give us a day or two.
When can we pick?
The season runs from mid-May through mid-July — about eight weeks. We open roughly four times a week, in three-hour morning slots between 9am and 12pm, Wednesday through Sunday. Picks are announced only a few days in advance, so watch this page, Facebook and Instagram.
Can I just show up?
No. Every visit needs a booked spot or a season pass, and walk-ins are not permitted. If it is not during a scheduled pick, we are closed.
How much is admission?
$5 plus tax per person entering the farm, one time, booked in advance. Produce is charged separately, by the pound, on your way out.
What do season passes cost?
All Access is $55 for a family of up to six, or $35 for an individual or couple, and covers every open pick including weekends. Weekday Only is $40 for a family and $25 for an individual or couple. Passes go on sale March 1, they sell out, and they are non-refundable.
Why are spots released so late?
Spots open only a couple of days before each pick. We cannot predict further ahead than that what will be ripe, and releasing them early would mean overbooking a field that is not ready.
How do I actually get a spot?
Honestly, it is mostly luck — refresh the page the moment spots go up. Weekends fill faster than weekdays. If a pick looks full, check back in ten or fifteen minutes, because spots expire out of other people’s carts.
What if I cannot book a spot at all?
They have either not been made available yet, they are full, or there are no picks scheduled that week.
How do I cancel?
Reply to your ticket confirmation email. To receive a refund you must cancel before midnight the night before the pick. We cannot refund no-shows, late cancellations, or bringing fewer people than you paid for.
Should I arrive early?
There is no need. If you have booked a spot, you are getting access to the field at the same time as everyone else. The parking lot opens fifteen minutes before the first time slot, and last check out is thirty minutes after the last time slot ends.
What will be ready?
During May the thornless blackberries start ripening along with beets, onions, garlic and carrots. Into June we ought to have cucumbers, tomatoes, peppers, squash and more. The season closes in mid-July. There is no guarantee of produce availability or quantity from day to day.
How much does the produce cost?
Blackberries $8 a pound. Hot peppers $9. Bell peppers $6. Carrots and cherry tomatoes $4.50. Slicing tomatoes and beets $3.50. Summer squash and cucumbers $3. Onions $2.50. Cantaloupes $2. Garlic $2 each. Flowers are $5 to fill a cup.
How do I pay?
You bet we take credit cards. Cash helps us avoid processing fees if you happen to have it.
How much can I pick?
As much or as little as you wish. But if you pick it, you bought it, so keep an eye on little ones. Discarding good produce in the field will get you banned.
What should I wear and bring?
A hat and closed-toed shoes are ideal attire. We wear long sleeves and pants even in the summer, so bring sunscreen and bug spray. If it rained recently, boots are a good idea. For carrying produce home, a cloth or washable bag works great — though we do hoard paper bags from Trader Joe’s and Whole Foods all winter too.
Can I bring my dog?
Sorry, but for food safety, no doggos are allowed at the farm.
Are there restrooms?
We have two wholly adequate Port-a-Potties that are serviced weekly.
Will there be bugs?
Totes. We do not use synthetic pesticides, so you are definitely gonna see a few — many of which are actually beneficial.
What happens if it rains?
We will stay open for sprinkles, but not for thunder and lightning. Cancellations are posted the same morning by email, text and social media.
What do you not grow?
We currently have no blueberries, corn, pumpkins, chickens or cows. What we do have is the vegetables, berries, cantaloupes and flowers listed above.
Can I buy Pure Land produce anywhere else?
Pure Land is a one hundred percent you-pick farm. We do not take bulk orders, attend farmers markets, run a farm stand or sell to restaurants. We are also a two-person operation, which is why email and phone replies can take us a day or two.
