It’s harvest time, and that means “U-Pick” season is here.

Normally, when it comes to putting fresh produce on the table the scene is this: Enter grocery store sliding doors, get hit by a cooling blast of AC, head to the crowded produce section, pick the best-looking fruits and veggies …you get the idea.

Now picture this: Enter a beautiful sunlit orchard or garden, walk down lines of dirt, admire a ladybug or two, and then, pick your own fresh fruits and veggies — right off the tree or vine.

If this little taste of the farm life is what you’re looking for, keep reading.

We’ve put together a list of 5 places where you can pick your own peaches, plums, pears, okra, apples, flowers and more this season.

Happy Apple Farm

Location: 1190 1st Street, Penrose

Don’t let the name fool you; Happy Apple Farm grows more than apples. Unfortunately this season, the farm lost its apple crop to a late freeze in April and then a hailstorm in July, according to its website. However, they have “Colorado Western Slope Apples” in their Country Store in addition to “U-Pick” pumpkins that began on Saturday, September 16. Also check out their free hayrides to the pumpkin patch, fresh-pressed apple cider and BBQ on the weekends. Their hours are Friday-Sunday from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
