About This Farm
Tougas Family Farm at Northborough picks eight crops from late May to November and is the most-reviewed farm in this region at 2,437. It is also the only farm on this site that advertises its lavatories, and it is right to: "large, clean, indoor restrooms, including baby changing tables and a Family Restroom".
What You Can Pick
- Strawberries - late May to June
- Cherries - late June to July
- Blueberries - July to August

Good to Know
Fields open Wednesday to Sunday, 8am to 4pm, closed Monday and Tuesday. Four o'clock is the last entrance, "or until picked out, whichever comes first".
The farm sets out its picking etiquette plainly: pick berries that are blue all the way around, one at a time rather than by the handful, box under the bush to catch what falls, and finish your assigned bush before moving on. Closed-toe shoes. No dogs.
Cash, Mastercard, Visa, Amex and SNAP.
Pro tip: "or until picked out" is not a formality on a farm this popular. A Saturday in blueberry season can close the field before lunch, and the Wednesday nobody thinks of is the better day.
