Alford Family Farm We are a strawberry, blueberry and blackberry U-Pick farm in Emory, Tx. Our homemade ice cream is always a favorite!

We open in April and by June we sell our fresh veggies as well as our pecans, jellies, jams and honey along with our berries. We are a family farm growing a diverse number of crops in a healthy, sustainable way. These include strawberries, blueberries and blackberries which we sell through our farmers markets and Pick Your Own operation here at the farm. We have 380 mature Pecan trees that we hope to harvest each year. Our muscadine grape vineyard produces both jumbo and small red and golden grapes, Michael grows at least 6 varieties of tomatoes each year in his vegetable garden as well as onions, zucchini, squash and more. He has rebuilt his aquaponic greenhouse where he starts all of his seedlings before planting as well as cares for his extensive collection of bonsai trees. Our Belted Galloway Cattle, who some call the oreo cookie cows can be seen grazing in our pasture and you will enjoy being greeted by our free range chickens, dogs, cats and koi fish...Check out our website if you get a chance....I am always trying to add more pictures and information there!

IRISES! We will be digging irises this week...I will have a large selection of colors and sizes, too large to post all of the pics, but we are selling them for $3 each, minimum order is 5 total. To try to simplify the process, I will tell you that we have all color combinations, but have very few solid colors, no black, no red and no pink, no white. What we do have is what is called bi-tone irises, one color on the falls, another on the standard. If you could respond via Facebook message and let me know what colors you are looking for, I can get those ready for you...We will be open on Friday and Saturday, all day, for you to pick them up. Thank you so much!

Meet our new herd bull...we are introducing new bloodlines into our beltie herd! We can't wait to see what his offspring will look like, but more importantly, taste like!

We're home! Our trip was above and beyond what we hoped for...Paris was beautiful, the people were friendly to us, the cruise was fascinating and fun with such nice fellow travelers on board that we enjoyed getting to know, and Lyon was an amazing "mini-Paris" and a great place to complete our vacation.

As promised, here's a few memorable places we visited...The Eiffel Tower, Versailles, the Louvre and Notre Dame as well as all of the small villages we experienced after...Thank you for your Anniversary wishes and prayers for our safe travels!

Good Morning! It looks like next week our 100 degree days are finally going to come to an end, and we might even get some rain! Because of the extreme heat, our muscadine grapes came and went before we could get a good harvest out of them...and we postponed digging the irises until this heat wave ended...so....

Tom and I leave for Paris today to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary, leaving Michael to hold down the fort at the farm. Upon our return, the irises will be in good shape to dig up, so we will be taking orders at that time.

In the meantime, this time tomorrow we will be standing at the foot of the Eiffel Tower enjoying cooler weather and thanking God for the blessed life we have had this past 40 years and our many friends and family that have been there for us through it all!

See you in 2 weeks when we will start digging those irises for everyone's Spring gardens!

Many things are starting to slow down here on the farm, including myself 😂.  but tomatoes are not one of them if anyone is interested in boxes of tomatoes they are $25 apiece at the farm and I’m also bringing extra boxes to Denton farmers market tomorrow. Sorry for the late notice but if anyone is interested or has a friend they think might be interested come out to the farmers market. These boxes usually run around 20 pounds
