U-Pick Farm Tours
Each season here at Tanaka Farms provides a different farm tour experience! Bring the entire family for a fun and educational tour of a real working farm!
All of our farm tours are led by a knowledgeable and friendly tour guide and include admission to the farm, a guided wagon ride around our beautiful thirty-acre farm, making several stops in the fields along the way to pick fruits and vegetables, visiting our Barnyard Educational Exhibit, and play area, as well as many photo opportunities to commemorate your visit with friends and family. In addition, all of our tours are available for Field Trips and Private Group Reservations.
All U-Pick Tours are subject to crop availability and can change at the last minute due to weather, infestation, ripeness, and many other factors that come along with a real working farm.

U-Pick Wagon Rides
Tour Information:
Come on out to the farm for a U-Pick Wagon Ride that includes a wagon ride around the farm led by one of our friendly tour guides. You will make a few stops in the fields to pick your own produce. We will pick three different seasonal vegetables. As a real working farm, it is difficult to know what will be ripe and ready to pick. We know that makes it hard for planning purposes, but we wouldn’t want our guests to be disappointed. After the wagon ride, visit the animals in our Barnyard Educational Exhibit!
