About This Farm
Thompson Farm at Bristol runs a fall raspberry season that holds until the first frost, which makes it one of the very last places to pick anything within reach of Chicago.
What You Can Pick
- Strawberries - early summer
- Sunflowers - through to Labor Day
- Raspberries - autumn, "through October or the first frost"
- Pumpkins - autumn
Good to Know
Open Wednesday to Sunday, 10am to 6pm. Closed Monday and Tuesday.
No prices are published. The farm is active on Facebook, Instagram and TikTok, all as @thompsonfarmwi.
Pro tip: "or the first frost" is doing real work in that sentence. A warm October gives you three more weekends of raspberries than a cold one, and this farm is the only place round here where that matters.
