Lewin Farms 812 Sound Avenue, Calverton, NY 11933

"We went to visit Lewin Farms on our day trip to Calverton. We went during the beginning of July when it was blueberry, raspberry, and blackberry season. Do make sure to call the number provided to make sure the farms are open. An automated voice will play listing what crops you can pick and hours of operation. There is no entrance fee for the picking farm, and you pay by weight at the end. The staff was very kind as well. At the picking area, there is a large water tank where you can wash your hands (do not use for washing your fruits!). Drinks and snacks are also for sale too. During our visit, the blackberries were not yet ripe, unfortunately, and some of the raspberries as well. That did not take away from our experience since many of the blueberries were ready to be picked towards the far end of the farm. I recommend picking towards the ends of the rows since that's where we found most of our big juicy blueberries. At the main area Lewin Farms has a market where yoy can buy produce and other goods, but my friend and I just got some blueberry ice cream. To our delight it was light and airy, only issue I had was that it had a ton of blue food coloring that left our months like we ate a smurf lol. I reccomend this place for the family, friends, or even just for yourself too for a nice day trip out East. You can enjoy a snack that you worked hard for!"

"My favorite baked potatoes on Earth! So good, seasonal for the summer, you can’t beat it $3.50 drizzled with butter and salt. They also have corn on the cob at their farm stand which is also very good. We did pick your own raspberries; you pay by weight for what you pick. Pricier than what you would pay for the produce at the grocery store but you pay for the experience; the berry selection was good and they also had blueberries. Plenty of parking. They have port a potties."

"This farm gives a great experience for families, especially those with young children to experience the very first-time picking. For strawberries, mid-June might be bit too late to pick the good-sized ones, so keep that in mind. Also, you put the address on GPS but the actually picking site is about 1/4 miles from the location, and there is a sign that leads to the picking site, so keep that in mind, too. Overall, we had a good time even though it would’ve been better if the size of strawberries were bigger than we picked today."

"My best friend and I took our kids strawberry picking here. It is a quick ride down the road from their store. It is a very large field, you do need to go as far down as you can because the nearest fields get picked out. We also picked sugar snap peas. I saw that they are currently growing peaches for picking later this summer. Their farm stand is really nice too. A TON of produce and other things to choose from. A lot of the stuff was local like the pastries. There are also some really nice flowers to buy."

"Very nice spot for a visit with the family. This farm has a very fun corn maze which my 5 year old loved. They also have apple and peach picking but u have a drive a little bit down the road to partake in those activities. Same for tomato picking and other veggies. The country store is full of lots of farm produce as well as many other things you would enjoy. They also sell water by the gallon which is probably a good idea because anywhere else you go sells by the tiny bottle so it’s much more expensive that way."
