BEST u-pick peaches in town ! When season is available... check their Facebook page for current…read moredetails on dates and availability....

I loved the idea of picking peaches for Mother's Day. Now it was H-O-T, not gonna lie!! But it…read morewas something new and I wanted to give it a try. This place is in Dade City which we took the back road from Lutz to get there. It made for a nice drive, not much traffic and the roads were smooth. Keep in mind that there is 1 way in and 1 way out. Also want to put in the disclaimer that if you have a low car or a car you may want to take it very easy when exiting -- the exit has a DEEP dip in the ground and isn't level to the road so if you don't go out at the right angle, you're going to get stuck. Next time we will definitely bring my SUV versus my hubs Dodge Charger. When you arrive, you park over on the side where they have signage indicating parking. Upon arriving, don't just go out and start picking unless you're familiar w/the process. Visit the small table they have setup near the large oak tree for a bag to fill with your peaches. They have 2 groves available --- 1 for more sweet peaches and 1 for more tangy peaches. We were probably out there a good 30-40 minutes and visited both groves. I wanted the sweet ones and my daughter wanted the tangy ones. These peaches are rather small compared to the peaches you've ever had from Georgia or from the grocery store. They do allow you to sample the peaches while picking -- just pick the peach and eat it! That's the best part. :) We ended up spending $30 for 2 bags which was actually ALOT of peaches. We did find it hard to find peaches that were ready to pick and looked good....the trees all seemed a bit picked over, which may be due to the timing as well. Perhaps if you go earlier in the season you'd have better luck in finding better peaches. They also went bad REALLY fast. Within 3 days, we had to throw a lot of them out given they were bad. Next year we'll go earlier in the season for better quality. I will give them 3 star though -- the people working there are extremely friendly and the groves are clean and allow for distancing while picking. They do have another grove not that far away which I think we'll try the next time we go. Restroom needed while there, have no fear --- they have a portable potty available.

Really cool place for treats, sweets and drinks!…read more The whole place is decorated in Alice in wonderland themed. Painting and even the menu are playing cards. Had some ice cream from here which was really good but found it odd that they weighed the portions. I don't feel like I got a lesser amount as the they filled the cup, but just odd. Anywho! We ended up getting a few macaroons. Probably the best macaroons I've had in years. Lite and fluffy but full of flavor. Points for no food dyes too. After all that we ended up purchasing a bad of tea. Mango tea. Yes I love mango things. But absolutely love the flavor and aroma this puts off. It's already sweet so I don't need to add much honey. Staff was great and helped the wife pick out a the right type of tea for her. A decent selection between black, green and herbal. Will be returning soon for more tea and treats!

I also love that he has foods there. He always has something new there. I actually bought a historic Royal palace tea set from him and it was packaged beautifully. He has other tea sets, but the set I wanted was very particular and had gold. I had seen the tea set when I had toured the Tower of London in 2014 came home and asked if he could get it. It definitely made getting it here easier from london! I always have the tea set displayed at home and it brings me much joy and brings great memories with my family. If you or a family member is an Anglophile, you will absolutely find something perfect. They have a small selection of Doctor Who stuff too!!

It's authentic Scottish shortbread made the traditional way with just flour, salted butter, and sugar, using a multi-generational family recipe that's been passed down. I also love supporting this female veteran-owned business. Mary Katherine has built something really special, and the quality really shows. If you get the chance to visit the shop in Dade City, it's worth it. The space is fun, eclectic, and full of personality, with touches of her Scottish heritage and support for other local businesses. Highly recommend if you love real shortbread!

They also sell local produce and sides of beef. The staff gives you buckets to fill with strawberries There are three different types of strawberries spread out in different sections. Some are sweeter than others. There were no signs posted to differentiate them. . We picked all types. After you are finished they will bag and weigh your strawberries, and you will pay by weight. Picking strawberries is a good deal of work, walking on uneven ground and constantly bending to pick. The season runs from December to March, so the temperature is nice. The best way to store the strawberries is in the refrigerator, unwashed, and covered. The ones we picked have so far lasted one week and still taste fresh.

The local farm near me for strawberry picking seems to never be open when both my hubby and I are…read moreoff work. JG Ranch is about an hour and a half away from me, and was the only place open when we had the time, and it was definitely worth the drive. The ranch was pretty easy to find, just a drive down a dirt road following signs to the farm. You pass some chickens on the drive up that you can park and feed for no charge. There's a mailbox that was full of bread upon our arrival, and we also brought our own bread scraps as the website said we could. Pulling up to the farm, you see lots of rows of beautiful bushes as well as a bunch of big ol cows and some babies. :) You can feed the cows for free from a bin of leaves or have a little lunch at one of the tables by the cows. The farm itself is lovely. They're currently in their strawberry season, where you can hand pick strawberries into a bucket, and you're charged by pound. $3.75/lb. Not bad! Behind the entrance they had other veggies available for picking such as kale, rainbow chard, cabbage, lettuce, etc. When we came, a very friendly woman showed us the four different strawberries they had available: wild strawberries, strawberries for chocolate dipping, big giant strawberries good for making juices or drinks, and super juicy strawberries that are supposed to spoil faster. She was super helpful and showed us how the farm was also labeled with markers so we would always know which strawberries are in front of us. One of the farmers was in the back tending to the strawberries and showed us an easy way to pick them off the stem, and he also gave me a big beautiful strawberry that he picked for himself. Paying was easy as they took card with no fee. The payment area was inside a shop with other fresh produce and some baked goods. I know here you can also inquire about fresh meats. Overall we had a wonderful experience here picking strawberries. They also have a blackberry and blueberry season!
