Actually turned around and went back, thinking fresh picked strawberries would be icing on the cake so to speak. Well, drove down to the little red building and was disappointed to see only cash or checks taken. Should have known that, being a country plot open only during peak berry season. Digging in all pockets I had a few bucks on hand and thought well I'll just ask them to weigh out whatever I could pay for. Not only did I get to pick right-out-of-the-ground berries I got more than plenty and a nice surprise to boot! Please.Go out and support this local farm. You'll be glad you did. You pick or they pick until the sweetness lasts, but hurry the field will be closing soon!

Firefly Farms is a small farm in Hillsborough, NC. They primarily sell produce but do have some…read moreflowers that you can pick by appointment when the farm is open. When you arrive at the farm, follow the gravel driveway back to the barn as that is where the designated parking is at. Then if you are picking flowers, you check in and are provided a grocery store type basket and a pair of scissors. The basket was great as it was light and had two handles. It was also nice that scissors were provided as I've been forgetful in the past and left them at home before. Or if you had ordered produce you can pick that up under the tent. The website is really easy to navigate and make your purchase. The driveway that you drove up, provides a lovely walk back down to where the flowers are at. There were some animals along the way too! There are signs up in the areas that you are allowed to pick flowers. When you finished finding flowers in the various areas, you walk back up to the barn and the flowers are wrapped and put into a mason jar vase. Also tips are given for caring for the flowers. I really enjoyed my outing to the farm and the reservation system made it so easy to social distance as there were not too many of us there at once. The staff was beyond friendly and made me feel welcomed.

When we arrived there was no one there to help us so we read the signs and got started. Everything we needed they provided. There are animals on the farm also for you to enjoy.

It took us about an hour to find all the checkpoints and we followed the map they gave us. I would say it's pretty impossible to complete without the map, which we quickly figured out before we even got to our first checkpoint haha. There's also a smaller, easier maze for kids to go through but we just went through the adult one. Highly recommend rewarding yourself to some maple view ice cream when you finish the maze! I got the strawberry and butter pecan flavor and they were miles better than anything you can get in the frozen aisle. Didnt have that artificial taste at all... that maple view milk really makes a difference! They do have a ten dollar minimum for snacks/ice cream purchases so would recommend bringing some cash with you. There's also a playground with a big slide and some small animals you can pet. You can also go for a free hayride that comes with the ticket to get in. We didn't end up going on it, but it looked fun!

They had 5+ varieties and the owner walked us out to show us where to pick and explain how the varieties were different. It was very family friendly, they had a play yard set up for their little one and ours joined in on the fun. They don't use pesticides so I felt safe with my little girl taste testing a couple. The folks were so kind and it wasn't overly done/expensive/crowded like a lot of other U-picks. It's a bit further out but well worth the drive!
