A short checklist so the trip feels easy — especially helpful for first-time u-pick visits in Iowa.

  • Bring closed-toe shoes, sun protection, water, and containers unless the farm supplies them.
  • Call or check the website for today’s picking conditions — mud, rain, and sold-out fields are common.
  • Arrive earlier in the day for cooler weather and better selection during peak weekends.
  • Payment notes on file: American Express, Discover, Mastercard, VISA. Cash still helps at smaller stands.

“These folks clearly enjoy what they do. This is my 2nd CSA pick-up. I'm a vegetarian and these orders have helped me out, tremendously! Thanks for your friendliness and the well-planned cooler bag system! The apple chips were so good and my husband and I were shocked that there was no added sugar because they were so sweet! We are a small family of 2 and were able to use everything. The kolrabi was a spiritual experience as we'd not had it since we lived in Madison, WI (over 5 yrs ago). 🙏🏻 Thank you for the recipe suggestions - I appreciate it so much! This CSA is a bargain! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐👏🏻 I found out about it in a newspaper at the UI urgent care clinic on Mormon Trek Blvd. So glad I stumbled upon their ad! 😄”

“Amazing apples (pre-picked only) and other produce in season and via CSA. Bonus is that it's owned and run by some of the nicest people around.”

“I love apples. They have some really great apples, often rare heirloom varieties. I drive quite a ways for these tasty treats.”

“Love this place!! The apple chips are amazing!!”

“Awesome food and awesome farmers! :)”
