Our u-pick sessions have now ended for the season. Orders can still be placed in our online shop.
U-Pick Passes
Imagine the pleasure of strolling through a 3 acre backyard full of the highest quality fruits and vegetables, without having any of the associated maintenance responsibilities. It's not too good to be true! This is the reality at Blossom Grove Family Farm, where we do all the planning, planting, watering, pruning, and weeding and you simply show up to enjoy harvesting your favourite food.
What will I be able to harvest?
Typical U-pick farms offer just one or two fruit crops during a short harvest period, but we have a dream of offering much more! By combining our apple and berry orchard with a massive vegetable garden, we aim to offer diverse and bountiful harvests throughout our entire Saskatchewan growing season. The crops that we have available for harvest will just change naturally as the growing season progresses.
We're starting this U-pick process with a pretty basic selection of crops, and we plan on adding many more selections in the future. Our current U-pick crop list is shown below and the crops currently available are highlighted in yellow. If there are specific fruits or vegetables you are interested in harvesting, it is best to check our crop availability here before booking your visit.

When can I come?
When you're ready to pick, sign up for a U-Pick Day Pass to gain access to any one of our scheduled harvest sessions. Preregistration is necessary to make sure there is sufficient parking space, enough food for everyone to harvest, and farm staff available to assist.
For our 2025 season we're keeping it simple and just starting with U-Pick days throughout the month of September, and mostly on Saturdays. To see the current harvest schedule, click the "Book Now" button below.
How much does it cost?
A single U-Pick Day Pass costs $10 per group, and we define one "group" as one vehicle, one peloton of cyclists, or one amble of walkers. As for the cost of your food, that will totally depend on how much you harvest, as every crop is sold by the pound.
Our 2025 U-Pick pricing is as follows:
-
Apples $2.00/lb
-
Beets $3.50/lb
-
Cabbage $3.00/lb
-
Carrots $4.25/lb

What should I bring with me?
Kids...✅ Friends...✅ Pets...❌ We'll provide produce baskets and hand tools to help you with your harvest. All we ask from you is that you look after your personal comfort and whatever you need to haul your food back home. That means packing gloves, hats, water bottles, and comfortable clothing for the expected weather. Then imagine what food you'd like to harvest and consider whether it would be carried home best with bags, boxes, crates, or coolers.
Where is the farm and where should I go when I get there?
We are located at 21 Poplar Road in Riverside Estates. When you arrive, enter through the front gate. There is a parking zone for vehicles along the north fence and cyclists can roll their bikes right around back behind the barn. Once you walk around back, you'll see a white tent and a friendly farmer ready to help you get started with your harvest.
Do I need to arrive at the start of my u-pick session?
No. You are free to arrive on your own schedule. This season, our morning sessions are from 9am to 12pm and our afternoon sessions are from 1pm to 4pm. You can plan to do your harvesting at any point within those windows of time. Just make sure you give yourself enough time to do all of your desired harvesting before the end of your session.
What forms of payment can you accept?
We are set up to accept cash or credit card payments on site.
Can I wash my fruits and vegetables at the farm?
Yes! We've built a nice little spray table that you can use to rinse off your food or any dirty kids you may have before you head home.
What if I need to wee in the middle of my harvest?
Someday, we hope to have a separate washroom facility on site, but for now if nature calls while your harvesting, you are welcome to use the washroom in our home.
What happens if I need to cancel my booking?
Life can interfere with your plans. We get it. However, we also ask that you take your booking seriously, because our u-pick spaces are limited and your booking may be preventing others from attending. If your group can no longer make it to your u-pick session, respond to your confirmation email requesting a cancelation at least one day before your booking. This advance notice will allow us to issue a refund for you and make it possible for others to participate in that u-pick session. Refunds will not be issued if you simply fail to show up for your booked session.
Have you got a question that wasn't listed here?
If there's something else on your mind, feel free to send me a message and I'll do my best to answer your question.
