Fan of the Farm Season Pass ~ Frequently Asked Questions

I Love to Upick. Is a Season Pass Right for my family?

a young boy adds freshly dug potatoes to his red bucket at the Big Dig Potato Harvest at Great County FarmsIf you love to experience the seasons by picking your own fruits and veggies, then the Fan of the Farm Season Pass is a great way to get started. This Season Pass includes u-pick field access and 10% off everything you pick plus farm admission for up to 6 members of your immediate family to pick and play every day the farm is open from March through December.  

Do I get any benefits at Bluemont Vineyard?
NEW for the 2023 season, Fan of the Farm Club Season Pass Holders will receive priority Vista Club Lounge or Deck seating on weekdays.  Come join us for lunch or dinner after your farm visit.  We can’t wait to welcome you on the mountain!
Do you have a CSA or Farm Club This Season?
 This is our 30th anniversary season and we are focusing on Pick your Own, Farm Education and Family Fun Experiences on the farm as our next generation of family farmers guides us into the future.  We are excited to welcome you to shop in our Farm Market and Experience the Farm and our Festivals without the burden of having to visit weekly, manage a subscription, set up vacation weeks or commit to a long season. We want to you come u-pick your favorite fruits and veggies, have fun playing & experiencing the farm, shop for what is in season and simply enjoy as often as you can.  We appreciate your support of our family farm and can’t wait to welcome you this season.
Is the produce organic?
Great Country Farms makes every effort to use organic, regenerative and sustainable farming methods, such as plasticulture, companion planting, and no-till planting; however, our crops are not certified organic. We grow our garden without synthetic chemical fertilizers or herbicides, and we enrich our soils extensively with compost, but we do use an integrated pest-management system in our orchards and on some of our field crops when pest pressure threatens the yield. We are constantly researching and implementing sustainable growing practices to better care for the land with which we have been blessed to steward.
Do I have to take the wagon ride to U-pick?
For your safety, we do ask that you ride the wagon to our pick-your-own fields. That way we can guide you to the areas where fruits and vegetables are ready for picking, and we can know where guests are in the fields. Storms may come up very quickly, and when they do we want to get everyone out of the fields safely. And when members walk to a field and then go straight to their car with their bonus, non-members may become confused about paying for the produce they’ve picked. We also want to ensure that people don’t pick produce we’re planning to pack in CSA boxes.
When does the farm open to the public?
The Farm Market and Bakery Open weekends in March starting March 4, 2023.  The Play Area open March 27, 2023 if not soon depending not the weather. Check out our calendar of events!
Are all festivals included with our Fan of the Farm Season Pass?
YES!  Festival admission is included with with your Fan of the Farm Season Pass.  Join us for Strawberry Jubilee, the Summer of Sunflowers, Peach Fuzztival and Fall Apple & Pumpkin Harvest as often as you like with your season pass.
Are all field trips included with our Fan Season Pass?
No. Field trips have never been included in our Membership programs and are not included with the Fan of the Farm Season Pass.   Children attending a field trip will enjoy guided tours, and additional items such as planting kits, gem bags, pyo items, etc depending on the tour.  Adults chaperoning a field trip, may check in with your Season Pass,  pick up your complimentary wristband and then join the field trip as a chaperone without the additional items included for the field trip. 
Are dogs allowed?
Yes. Please keep them leashed and make sure they are wearing their rabies tag and have all other necessary shots. We also ask that you bring your own dog water bowl and clean up bags.
