Pick-your-own across Ontario

Ontario's u-pick season runs from the first June strawberries through the last October pumpkins. Berry fields open first and run for a few short weeks; sunflower and lavender rows peak in late summer; apple orchards and pumpkin patches carry the fall, often with wagon rides, corn mazes, and a farm market alongside. This finder spans the whole province, from the orchards around Niagara and the markets of the Greater Toronto Area out to Eastern, Southwestern, and Northern Ontario.

This is an independent finder. It points you to each farm's official site, where the current hours, admission, and what is ripe are kept up to date. Picking is weather-dependent, so a field that is open one weekend may be picked out or rained off the next. Always check before you drive.

U-pick questions

How do I find a u-pick farm near me?

Use the "Find farms near me" button at the top: share your location and the finder lists the closest farms and markets with the distance to each, and recentres the map on you. Your location stays in your browser. Prefer to browse? Jump to your region, or open the map and zoom into your area. Every pin links to a farm page, with an official-site link when the source data has a reliable one.

When does u-pick season start in Ontario?

Strawberries usually open the season in mid to late June, raspberries and blueberries follow in July, sunflowers and lavender peak in August, and apples and pumpkins run from late August through October. The "what is ready when" chart shows the typical window for each crop. Every farm sets its own dates by the weather, so check the official site before you go.

Can I get reminded when a season starts?

Yes. On the "what is ready when" chart, tap "Remind me" next to a crop and your calendar app saves a yearly reminder that nudges you about a week before that crop typically opens in Ontario. It is a typical window, not a live schedule, so still confirm with the farm before you drive.

Are farmers markets included?

Yes, but only when the market or farm has been checked against a farm-owned source. Of the 425 public listings, 360 are farmers markets and 23 are general farm stands. You can hide the markets on the map with one tap if you only want to pick in a field.

How current is this list?

This finder publicly lists 425 Ontario farms and markets, all checked against farm-owned sources. Seasons shown are typical windows, not a live schedule, so confirm hours and what is open on the farm's official site before you visit.
