- 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.
- Cash still helps at smaller stands even when cards are accepted.

“I first came upon Ela Farms fruit butters at the Boulder Farmers Market. Then I was still able to find this awesome product in Whole Foods. Now I don’t see it regularly so I ordered it directly. That was a very happy experience! NICE! Arrived right at my door. All their jams, jellies and fruit butters are so superior to store bought stuff. They are so healthy and yummy!”
“My grandma lives in Denver, and my sister brought a bag of this back for my dad after one of her visits. By back, I mean that I’m in Atlanta. Nothing I’ve tried form a store or back is like this. This is exactly how Grandma and Papa’s dried peaches and apples used to taste from their orchard. Perfect, natural, ripe, and (now) nostalgic. Thank you”
“Bought a bag of peaches from Ela Family Farms at the Golden farmers market. Best peaches I ever had! Sweet, SO juicy, perfect size (small but not too small). And lasted a week (before I ate the whole bag).”
“Very kind folks with delicious fruit and unique varietals; thanks so much for what you do.”
“The best freshest fruit I’ve ever had.”
