Beth and Tom took over this third-generation fruit farm in Ridgeville from their father, Joe. Visitors pick sweet and sour cherries, red currants, black raspberries and mulberries from late June through July, and raspberries return from late August until the first frost. The fruit stand sells pre-picked berries, Bartlett pears and, in the fall, pawpaws, along with Beth's jams. Jams and frozen berries can also be ordered from the farm all year.
