Harvest Calendar & Seasonal Timing

Harvest at Nuts About Dee’s Berries follows the rhythm of the season. From early-summer berries to fall nuts, what’s ready changes as crops ripen and weather shifts. To help you plan your visit, we share a general harvest timeline and update availability as crops come into season.

What to expect throughout the season:

  • Mid-season offers the widest variety
  • Late season focuses on nuts and fall fruits
  • Not all crops are available at the same time
  • Harvest timing varies slightly year to year
  • Peak flavor windows are short — timing matters
