Opening for the first time tomorrow, November 27th, we are hosting our Winter Lights Extravaganza! We’ve turned over an acre in to a wonderland of giant interactive light sculptures made from Crepe Myrtle cuttings. From the Floating Halo, to Woodhenge, to the Lightning, kids and parents both will be amazed at the size and number of lights. Over 3 miles of strings have been used containing over 30,000 lights! We OPEN November 27th and will be open Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights.
We’ll be open the night before Thanksgiving, as well as Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve and Christmas nights! (No Pets or Animals of any kind allowed, and no outside food or drinks.)

The Fields!
We’ve got even more fields of berries!
GOATS!!!
When our Dr Young set up the farm, he wanted goats. Throughout the years the goats, traditionally French Alpine goats, have provided a great introduction to farm animals for countless children and adults. When we moved the sales counter away from the barn, the goat interaction dwindled. We kept hearing that our visitors missed seeing the goats. And we missed the goats.
So we got more goats! For the first time we will be having a more interactive experience as well. We will be having a petting zoo with our various goats that are perfectly sized to interact with.
WE DO NOT ALLOW DOGS OR PETS
We do NOT allow any dogs or pets on the farm, not even just to walk in the parking lot. We have small goats that will be walking around the farm. So no matter how sweet your dog might be, the safety of our goats comes first!
A Note on Spray
We do not spray chemicals on our berries. We use a natural organic product that is an insecticide, miticide, fungicide and nematicide. We have been using this product for about 4 years and although it is quite expensive, we think that its safety makes it worthwhile. (Personally, we do not wash our berries before we eat them.) We hope you like the berries as much as we do. Aside from being extremely healthful, they sure taste great!
PICKING CUPS
Every year people ask to use a picking cup. We finally solved the problem! We’ve created a picking cup that for just $5 you can leave the field with it full of berries as well as your bucket! Plus you get to have a pretty cup in the winter.
