Tips for Visiting a Pick-Your-Own Farm

DO:
	Remember that when you visit a farm, you are a welcome visitor. Like many farms, it is both the family's home and business. Respect their property;
	Read and obey all signs. Follow directions about where and what to pick;
	Supervise children at all times and be careful around ponds and other bodies of water;
	Wear shoes, shirts and other proper clothing at all times;
	Protect yourself from the sun by wearing a sunscreen and a hat;
	Leave all pets at home;
	Be sure to place all litter in the proper trash receptacles;
	Keep head, arms, hands and legs inside when riding in farm wagons. Remain seated until the wagon stops;
	Enjoy yourself and have fun!

DO NOT:
	Enter buildings that are not open to the public;
	Throw or damage produce;
	Climb on or touch farm tools and equipment. Many machines have sharp edges and moving parts;
	Climb trees or step on fruits and vegetables in the field;
	Frighten or hurt farm animals
