Granny B Farms

Granny B Farms Granny B Farms has been sold. The new owners of the farm (now Pleasantview Produce) are selling produce on site Mon-Sat 8am to 7pm. No Sunday sales.

No phone access since they are Amish. We are an organic farm that specializes in asparagus and berries. We have strawberries, raspberries, blackberries, and blueberries in the field. We have raspberries in high tunnels as well as in the field. We have a smaller amount of specialty berries, including aronia, gooseberry, elderberry, and currants. We also grow annual vegetables.

I just spoke with Sarah about the strawberries. The fields have been pretty heavily picked and we got a lot of rain here last night. She recommended waiting until early next week for picking.

Strawberries are getting so very close!

I have heard that there are now some fully ripe berries but that the majority are still ripening. So you could go today if you are desperate for berries, but waiting until Monday would be safer.

As a reminder, they are closed on Sundays. Please do not include Amish people in your photographs.

I talked with the new owners and looked at the strawberry field. There will definitely NOT be picking this weekend but the plants are loaded with unripe berries and flowers. I would estimate 7-10 days for picking to begin.

Granny B Farms is moving to Massachusetts! Technically, the people are moving and not the land. ๐Ÿ˜‰ The land will be in the same location (๐Ÿ™„) under new ownership. Pleasantview produce will be operated by the Gingrich family. They are planning to continue strawberry upick as well as organic certification. Strawberry season is expected to start late May. Because the Gingrich family is Amish, they do not have a digital presence. I will post updates this year since I will still be in Ohio at the beginning of the season, so hopefully everyone will be able to get their delicious berries.

P.S. Amish people have a religious objection to being photographed, so please do not include them in any photographs you take while there. Taking pictures of the scenery and the berries is totally fine.

Clintonville Market is tomorrow. Blueberry season is ending, so this will likely be our last week. We may have some next week also, but it is not certain. We will continue to have raspberries. For vegetables, look for okra, squash, tomatoes, cabbage, beets, garlic, potatoes, and onions.

Market day!

We will have blueberries and red raspberries for sale this morning. We still have asparagus for sale but this season is coming to an end. We will also have kale, cauliflower, lettuces, and spring onions.

Photo: we checked on the new hives and added another box so they will have enough room to store honey for the winter. Before you can ask...we donโ€™t have honey for sale. We keep the hives to encourage adequate pollination of the crops.

Strawberry upick will be coming to an end tomorrow, 6/16. We will be open just from 9-1. There are ripe berries, but they are becoming more scattered. If you are looking for just a few quarts, you shouldnโ€™t have much trouble. If you are looking for a flat or more, you are likely to be hot and cranky by the time you gather that many (but just think of the sense of accomplishment you will have!).

We are not doing raspberries for upick at this time but plan to do so later in the season. We will have prepicked berries available.

We are going to be open today for upick from 10-6. The berry season is coming to an end...almost all berries are ripe at this point. We also lost some berries due to the recent rainy weather. There are still a good number of ripe berries overall, but the fields are starting to get patches with very few berries.

Strawberry upick will be open again today. We are getting towards the end of berry season but the fields still hold a lot of berries, especially the new fields. The old fields started producing earlier and are closer to finishing. The forecast is for sun all day, so we will be open 10-6.

We have decided to open the strawberry fields for an additional u pick day today. The rain and threat of rain has limited our picking and we have a lot of ripe berries. We will be open 10-6 as long as it doesnโ€™t rain.
