PLANNING A VISIT TO THE FARM

 

  • Spring/Summer Fruit Season Visit

    You-Pick blueberry fields are conveniently located near parking and our Farm Store. We have two strawberry fields. One field is right beside the farm store and the other one is a 5 minute walk.

    For picking, bring any bucket back that you got from us during previous seasons, or you can purchase a picking bucket from us for $2 (cash only for buckets). You may also bring any container from home to use for picking but it must be lined with a bag.

    Our indoor farm store is air conditioned and handicapped accessible.

    Restrooms are air conditioned and a diaper changing table is available.

    A sitting area is available near each U-Pick field for resting, if needed.

    Additional seating is available on our Farm Store porch or indoors.

    Cold drinks and snacks are available to purchase in our Farm Store.

    We have designated picnic areas for enjoying food/drinks purchased or brought from home.

    We will tie trees down on vehicles; however, customers are responsible for making sure their tree is secure before leaving Panola Orchard. We are not responsible for damages to vehicle or loss of tree during transport.

  • What to bring/what to wear
