Fill your pails (and tummies) at some of the best u-pick berry farms around.



Thanks to Tri-County Farm Association for sponsoring this guide! They are a collective of farmers in the Portland, Oregon area who have joined forces in an effort to invite our neighbors and community members to shop small and support local farms. Locate a farm or specific crop near you with their Find a Farm resource.
Before heading out, check with local farms directly to learn what fruit is available and what Covid precautions to expect. Please note that due to heavy rains in spring of 2022, u-pick season is delayed a few weeks.
