We grow what we sell

Picked ripe. Shared with California.

Fruit doesn't have to travel halfway around the world to taste extraordinary. From our orchards in Bakersfield to farmers' markets across California, we bring you the harvest at its best.

Fresh from the farm

Two reasons to head outside.

Take home flowers you picked yourself and strawberries straight from the field. There's plenty to discover at Murray Family Farms this November.

Sunflower U-Pick

Step into a field of golden sunflowers, find your favorite bloom, and take a few photos along the way. Pick a flower to take home and bring a little of the farm's sunshine with you.

Included with paid admission: One sunflower, while supplies last. Want to pick more? Additional sunflowers are $2 each.

Strawberry U-Pick

There's nothing quite like picking strawberries straight from the plant. Head into the berry field, choose your favorites, and enjoy the satisfaction of bringing home fruit you picked yourself.

Picking information: Strawberry picking depends on what's ripe and ready that day. Ask our team about current picking containers and prices.
Strawberry and sunflower availability depends on growing conditions and harvest readiness. Some picking options may be limited or sell out during the day.
