PUMPKINS this October 2025

Pumpkins at Sauvie Island Farms 2025

We are opening the farm for the month of October for                  u-pick Pumpkins.  8am-6pm

We are doing this for those of you who may just want to get a few pumpkins for the kids to carve or to decorate your porch.  We do not have the hype or extra entertainment like other farms. We do not have an entrance fee or extra charges.  

It will just be you and a field full of pumpkins.  

(if you want the 'extras' there are a couple of farms on the island doing a great job providing fall fun.)

We will have the farm open same as this summer-- self serve, pay using cash or venmo. 

We know that this system is not perfect, we so appreciate all who have honored our farm over the summer, and if you are reading this, we are sure that you have.  Thank you.

Sauvie Island Farms has been growing pumpkins for decades.  We have a few wholesale accounts, one you may have seen on tv.  We usually do not open to the public, but our field is right before the blueberries this year and accessible from our main walking road.  If you have been to the farm, you know the blueberry field is about a 5 minute walk from the farm's entrance.  Carrying a pumpkin or two this far may not be possible for some.  We do a have a few (less than 10) wagons for you to use while at the farm or you are welcome to bring your own wagon.  

Prices for the pumpkins:

Small 'field trip' size: $2 each

Jack o Lanterns:  $6 each

Large-over 25lbs $10 each

mini pumpkins: 2 for $1.00

You will walk past a field of cabbage right before you get to the pumpkins, you are welcome to harvest those also.   $2 each

We do still have some nice flowers blooming on the farm.
Dahlias 50 cents per bloom. Zinnias & Sunflowers  $5 per bundle-what you can wrap your thumb and fingers around.

U-pick APPLES:  Rome Beauty and Red Delicious  $1.00 per lb. The apples are not sprayed, so there  may--will--be worms in some of the apples.

It's fall, so there will be mud.  Be careful where you step and come prepared.

Happy Pumpkin hunting from Sauvie Island Farms

2025 Pick Your Own season at Sauvie Island Farms

 Important Update about Sauvie Island Farms for the 2025 season!

This year at Sauvie Island Farms the u-pick farm will look different.

Our old peach orchard has now been completely removed as well as the pear trees. As our raspberries also were aging and need to be completely replaced or removed, we have removed both the red and yellow raspberries.  As the farmer and his wife are also aging we are 'slow quitting'.  Not retiring yet, but slowing down a bit.  

WE HAVE MADE SOME CHANGES. 

Our u-pick will be SELF SERVE.  No one will be at the farm to assist you.  Come prepared to pay using CASH or VENMO.  Also bring your own clippers, buckets or whatever you will need while at the farm. We will NOT be providing boxes, clippers or wagons this year.

Our season begins with U-CUT PEONIES.  $1.00 per bloom  Open May 24

A few other perennials are in bloom, sage, chives, carnation pinks, lupine, & Dame's rocket @$5 per bundle. (what  you can wrap your thumb and index finger around)

For the rest of the season this is what we will have for u-pick:

STRAWBERRIES-Mary's Peak  not ripe yet and not a large crop this year, but coming soon!

BLUEBERRIES-Early Blues & Blue Crop   ripe mid June-July

MARIONBERRIES  ripe early July

SWEET CORN  ripe August
PICKLING CUKES  ripe August

FLOWERS- Peonies, Lavender, Shasta Daisies, Dahlias, Zinnias, Sunflowers, Herbs

You can find updates and availability on our facebook page or by calling our farm line @ 503-621-3988

We will NOT be taking orders or fresh picking.

We so appreciate all of our loyal customers over the years, and we hope that we can still provide a peaceful farm for you to pick berries and flowers at this year.

For those crops that we no longer offer, there are several farms operating on Sauvie Island that have berries, peaches and veggies.  We hope you will find one that you enjoy.

Thanks for your interest and support of our farm. 

Blueberries

Strawberries at Sauvie Island Farms

 The strawberries are riping quickly with the warm weather we have been having, so we have changed our plans and will OPEN on Thursday June 8th, 8am-6pm 

and continue to be open Monday-Saturday, closed on Sundays.

We have 4 varieties of strawberries at the farm this year.  

Hood, Shuksan, Puget Crimson and Mary's Peak.

The Hoods and Shuksans  are on the 4th year of harvest, the plants are stressed and the fruit is smaller, but still very sweet.  These 2 are ripe and ready to pick NOW.  

The Puget Crimson and Mary's Peak are just starting to get big beautiful ripe berries, they should be good to harvest for the next 3 weeks.

All u-pick strawberries are $3.00 per lb.

Fresh picked strawberries will be available by order only starting Saturday June 10.  

$45 flat or $25 1/2 flat.  

*We will NOT have HOODS for fresh pick this year.  We only have 12 rows of Hoods and are keeping those for u-pick only.  

We need to have your order in by 5pm the day before you want to pick up at the farm.  

Call or Text 503-621-3988 to leave your order.    

Peonies have not lasted long this year, we have had a lot of strong winds, but you can still cut them for $1.00 a bloom.

Strawberries 2023

 We have been patiently waiting for the strawberries to ripen at Sauvie Island Farms.

This year on the farm we have Hood, Shuksan, Puget Crimson and Mary's Peak strawberry varieties.

The Hood and Shuksan fields are on their 4th year, they are usually good for 3 harvest seasons. We kept these 2 varieties in for another year, because we were unable to get these varieties to replant over the past 2 years.  All this to say, they are producing, but not a large crop.  

We have a small amount of Hood and Shuksan ripening and will be open for a few hours for the first pick of the season 

Saturday, June 3.  9am-1pm  

We will then open for the season on Saturday June 10  8am-6pm

hopefully with Puget Crimson and Mary's Peak as well as the Hood and Shuksan, 

we will continue to be open Monday-Saturdays  8am-6pm

If you wanting to get the first taste of Oregon grown strawberries, come out Saturday.

We also have beautiful peonies in bloom for $1.00 per bloom or 12 for $10.
