As part of the take-your-own deals, we are guaranteed to fill our pantry with fresh fruit!

According to the map of the National Chamber of Agriculture, there are farms in almost every county that advertise the so-called take-your-own campaign. In most places, you can pick apples and pears according to the season, but many plum, grape and walnut plantations also await harvesters. In addition, in the case of more special fruits such as quinces, persimmons, figs, and even kiwis, you can find a farm in the country where they advertise a pick-your-own sale.

The biggest advantages of take-it-yourself deals

Since we harvest the produce ourselves, we can fill the crates and baskets with the most beautiful fruits, and in addition, we can get fresh fruits much cheaper than the market price. The harvest can also be attributed to exercise in the fresh air, so its recreational role cannot be questioned.

The pick-it-yourself movement is an important segment of the short sales chain, the form with the smallest environmental footprint

Buy-it-yourself sales are also becoming more and more popular. In this case, you can buy not only fruit harvested by us, but also fresh fruit picked in advance by the grower. Every year, the season starts with strawberries, which is the fruit with which the most pick-your-own deals have started in recent years. In addition to fruits, recently many vegetables and even flowers can be purchased in this form.
