A Place We'd Love To Visit
Kid-friendly U-pick Strawberry Fields
Each year, as summer approaches, our family loves to start thinking about when and where we'd like to go strawberry picking. What's better than being caught "red-handed" in the berry patch, chowing down on those juicy red "candies."
I definitely prefer the organic ones since you know that your kids are probably going to popping these berries straight into their mouths. They'll might eat some dirt along with the berries, but at least they won't be consuming any harmful pesticides as well.
Here's a list of u-pick farms that go all out for kids. I've also tried to note which ones are use organic farming methods.

When the kids were younger with a shorter attention span, the playground with the antique tractor and barnyard animals were fun to watch. They've got goats, pigs, ducks, and more.

The BackForty Playground is open from September through October and we got to visit last fall. They have a huge blob that the kids and adults can jump on that's really fun. I think I burned a good 5 pounds trying to jump up and down on that thing without sliding off. For the $15 admission, there's a lot to do. Admission is free for kids under 2 since many of them might be afraid of the rides and games. A great place to come and enjoy the autumn season with the kids.

The farm stand has water, other drinks and snacks. If you have younger children, I would recommend bringing a lunch, so you don't have to hunt for a restaurant afterwards and deal with cranky hungry kids.
The farm also has peach, apple and other fruit orchards, so you'll definitely have an excuse to come here more than once a year.
Strawberries are great for smaller kids (under 5) since they are on the ground. When apple picking, the trees usually have lower branches with some apples at just the right height for your four foot preschoolers. You should easily be able to pick a bag's worth of crisp apples for home.

Great Country Farms has a variety of fruits and vegetables to pick from asparagus to potatoes, peaches to strawberries. They've got great events like the family harvest in the fall. Our kids loved the pig racing event.
We don't buy a lot since we're usually just visiting the area, but it's always a fun way to add some fresh fruit that's picked by your own hands into the usual burgers and fries travel menu.
