RITTMAN ORCHARDS UPICK POLICY

Every time we open UPICK for the day, it might end earlier than we think/post. We may get PICKED OUT of berries or the weather might change. Our policy is ALWAYS that we stay open until our posted closing time OR when we get picked out. Whichever comes first. Thank you for your understanding.

IMPORTANT INFO

PICK Blueberries are $5.00/pound

White buckets $1.50

🍓We are always closed Mondays.

🍓The ONLY containers allowed are the white berry buckets you have used with us in the past. If you don’t have one, we have them available for purchase ($1.50). These buckets hold about 4-5 pounds of berries when filled. Unfortunately, we cannot allow any other containers for u-pick. Once you buy them, bring them back every time you pick berries at our orchard!

🍓We do not sell buckets in our store.

🍓WE TAKE CASH OR CREDIT. No personal checks.

🍓U-pick transactions will be handled in the shed near the field.

🍓Please check the website before you come out we often have to close the fields when they get picked out or if weather is bad.

🍓If we are picked out, we do our best to get the word out on social media, our website, and our answering machine. Please ALWAYS check Facebook, our website, or call BEFORE you come to pick berries.

🍓If we get picked out, we have to wait for more berries to ripen to re-open the u-pick field.

🍓BATHROOMS: There is a port-a-potty located near the strawberry field and we have one public bathroom in our market.

🍓DOG POLICY- We allow dogs on the orchard property, however, they must be leashed and may not be IN the strawberry fields. They are also not allowed in our store or winery, unless they are certified service dogs (health department rules).

🍓WEATHER POLICY – We close the u-pick fields when there is thunder and lightening or a torrential downpour. If the storm passes, we will reopen.

🍓Depending on the weather, strawberry season will most likely last through the end of June.
