ABOUT US

Located on picturesque Sauvie Island, Columbia Farms U-Pick was planted in the early 1990s. We started with one acre of strawberries and now offer more than fifteen different types of berries, covering over eighty acres. We also have peonies, pumpkins and all types of fall décor items. 

Our family strives to keep the true essence of a working farm for our visitors. Everyone is welcome to pick berries and enjoy the scenery. We hope to see you soon!

PRE-ORDER BERRIES

***WE ARE DONE OFFERING PRE-PICKED BERRIES FOR THE 2022 SEASON*** 

You may pre-order berries to be picked up the following business day by calling us at:
(503) 621-3909

Don’t forget to leave your name, phone number, type of berries* and quantity wanted. (A standard flat has 12 pint boxes and holds 8-10 pounds.) You can order anything more than 1 pint.**

Orders must be phoned in by 4:00pm the day before pick-up.

Berries must be picked up between 10am - 4pm

IF YOU HAVE NOT PICKED UP YOUR BERRIES BY THE 4PM DEADLINE, WE WILL SELL THEM TO SOMEONE ELSE. (UNLESS YOU HAVE PREVIOUSLY ARRANGED FOR A LATE PICK-UP.)

*Fields are assessed each morning and the best quality variety is picked.
**If you continue to be a “no-show” for your reserved berries, we will no longer reserve berries for you.

 FAQs

  • NOPE. Animals are not allowed on our farm. This rule exists to keep our berry fields clean and safe for consumption. *Dogs are permitted during pumpkin season only.)

  • Please check our Pre-Order Berries page for more information.

  • No, you do not need a reservation to pick berries during regular business hours. Please keep in mind that access to our u-pick fields ends at 4:30pm.

  • We are happy to provide clean, brand new boxes for free at our farm. If you wish to use your own, standard-size flat with green pint boxes from previous years on our farm, you may do so. Please note that we do not weigh any berries, so all fruit must be picked into pint boxes.

  • At our peony self-serve station, we accept cash and Venmo. When our market opens for berry season, we accept cash, check, Visa and Mastercard.

  • All of those sound like fun! However, we pride ourselves in offering a quiet, quaint, working-farm experience for our customers. We do not offer any festival-esque activities, but there are plenty of other farms on Sauvie Island that do.

  • Sauvie Island is full of fun activities for the entire family. Please check out the island's website for more information.
