Birdsong Orchards holds you-pick roses

-

The Birdsong Orchards You Pick Rose Field is the only place in California offering you-pick roses and striving to ensure you have a special and joyful time on the farm.

Upon purchase of a You Pick Roses reservatio­n, you will be prompted to select a date and time for your visit. The farm is in Watsonvill­e, and you will be sent the address in your order confirmati­on email.

You must have a reservatio­n to visit as the farm is not generally open to the public.

Birdsong Orchard is currently open for you pick flowers on Saturdays and Sundays throughout the spring, summer and usually into the fall. Your reservatio­n is for one to two adults. Please arrive in one car, since parking is limited. If you would like to visit with a larger group, purchase additional reservatio­ns. If you would like to purchase additional buckets for flowers, they will be for sale onsite. Organizers ask that you not bring children age 15 or younger or dogs.

The 2-gallon bucket provided is for you to take home so your roses stay in water. Please feel free to bring your own clippers and gloves. There will also be clippers and gloves to borrow, but do remember to leave any borrowed tools with us.

Other things you may like to bring: sun hat, water bottle, sunscreen, sturdy shoes, your own clippers and gloves if you have them. Please be timely and courteous of other visitors so everyone can enjoy a relaxing time in the rose garden. You may reschedule your appointmen­t by reaching out at least 48 hours in advance. Missed appointmen­ts cannot be reschedule­d.

Reservatio­ns are required. To make a reservatio­n, visit birdsongor­chards.com.
