Directions to our Farm

Farm opens Friday, September 1.
The grapes are ripening earlier this year due to the warm summer. Dust out your baskets, pails and crushers!
We have over 20 varieties of grapes to choose from when you come to our farm to pick.

The clovers and thistles have been growing rapidly and the hot weather has caused the flowers to grow profusely -- the honeybees have been busy.
Bring your pails and jars & we will fill them with honey.

Observation Hive Tells Secrets …
The magical world of the honeybee is now yours to see through our observation hive. Let your children find the queen, and see what’s happening in the honeybees unique home.

Picking Tips ...
Small pruning shears are ideal for picking grapes. You may bring your own or we will provide grape knives along with bags. Our grape knives are for adult use only. Heavy dew on the grass will make rubber boots useful for morning picking.

Telephone: Honeyflow Farm will maintain a 24 hour Hotline (recorded telephone message) throughout the growing season.
