At our BROOKLYN PARK location today (7/25): We are happy to have Michigan Blueberries! 🫐 This is brought to you by the same group that has done the Colorado Peaches fundraiser at the stand the past few years. Yes, they will be back with peaches, but for now, enjoy some blueberries with your sweet corn!😋

Farmlife is a family affair. Even our youngest gets in on the action. She begs for us to wake her up early so she can be in the field and drive the tractor as the crew picks the sweet corn. ❤️ Shout out to this hardworking group who arrives at the crack of dawn every morning to hand-pick, sort, pack, stack, and deliver your favorite sweet corn! 🌽

What's NEW at Fresh Pickin's?!

This year in addition to our normal zucchini & summer squash, we also have these adorable round zucchini & summer squash! 🥰 They taste just like the others, but have a fun shape. Perfect for slicing, cubing, grating, or even little zucchini boats! And our purple beans are attracting a lot of attention this year. 💜 They are a variety called "Celine". Although the flavor is milder than the traditional green beans, they are tender and tasty! Have you tried any of our new items? What did you think??

Try something NEW next time you stop into your local Fresh Pickin's location!

If you are in the BIG LAKE area, be sure to stop in and say hi! We won't have sweet corn until Monday, but still have some delicious freshly picked produce. Look for the little red barn in the same spot as last year: on highway 10, across from the McDonald's.

🌽🌽🌽As you can see, our sweet corn is *almost* ready!!! 👏

The heat this week is really helping push the growing along, so we are looking at opening up for the SWEET CORN🌽 season on MONDAY, JULY 15TH! This spring we were hoping for the 12th or 13th, but even with weather conditions that have not been ideal, we're only a few days behind our projected date.

Of course we will have other delicious produce as well. Everything is picked fresh from our farm here in Brooklyn Park: Cucumbers, green beans, zucchini, summer squash, potatoes, and MORE!!!

***We are planning to open at all locations next week, stay tuned for info on hours and locations.***

🌽Many of our loyal customers have been asking about our sweet corn: "How is it doing with all the rain?", "When will it be ready?", "Where can we get sweet corn this year?"

The good news is that all the rain has not hurt the corn because we farm in Brooklyn Park where the soil is extremely sandy and drains well. We've had a LOT of rain, but many of the big storms missed us, so no damage to the crops. In fact, all this rain is a relief from last year when we had to irrigate all summer long! The cooler than normal weather has slowed the sweet corn growth though. It was looking like we might have sweet corn as early as the 10th or 11th of July, but due to the lack of really hot days, we're looking at around the 15th of July. Sweet corn needs heat to grow. We are planning to have the same Fresh Pickin's locations as last year:

•Brooklyn Park
•Chanhassen
•Blaine
•St. Michael
•Monticello
•Big Lake
•Lakeville Pickin's in Lakeville

More information on locations and hours as the season gets closer. Our sweet corn will also be available at a few Twin Cities grocery stores including select Hy-Vee's.

🍉For those of you asking about melons: Muskmelon are typically ready at the end of July, & watermelon in early August. As always, our crops are pampered, and every effort is made to get them ripe as early as possible. So we are hoping to have melons earlier than normal as well!

🍓For now, enjoy strawberry season while it lasts! We are hoping to get a few more days of picking in, so be sure to stop by and grab some while you can!
