You Pick Farms

http://pickyourown.org/ILchicago.htm

A number of farmers offer consumers the experience of harvesting their own food. U-pick farms are a growing trend since the issue of eating and sourcing locally reminds people just how good local produce is.

Most farms charge about 20-25 percent less than market prices to pick. Weather conditions can alter the picking schedule so always call ahead.

And whatever it is you pick, be sure to invite me over for dinner!

Bon Appetit!
