Frequently Asked Questions

What types of honey does Hickory Hill Farm typically carry?
The honey available at farm-based operations like this one tends to reflect whatever is blooming locally, so you might find wildflower, clover, or fruit blossom varieties depending on the season. It's best to call ahead at (540) 269-6251 to ask what's currently in stock before making the trip.
Do I need to bring my own containers for pick-your-own harvesting?
Most pick-your-own farms provide containers at the entrance, though some may charge a small fee or ask you to purchase a flat or bucket. It's always a good idea to confirm this with the farm directly before your visit so you're prepared.
Is the honey sold here raw or pasteurized?
Small farm-based honey producers in Virginia often sell raw, minimally processed honey that hasn't been heated or filtered extensively. Raw honey retains more of its natural enzymes and flavor, though you should confirm the processing method directly with the farm.
Can I visit Hickory Hill Farm with kids who want to learn about bees?
Farm settings like this one are generally great for introducing kids to how pollination works in practice, especially if bees are actively working nearby crops. You'd want to contact the farm to ask whether they offer any educational components or guided tours before bringing a group.
What fruits and vegetables are typically available for picking?
Availability varies by season in the Shenandoah Valley, but pick-your-own farms in this region commonly offer strawberries in late spring, then move into stone fruits, apples, and late-season vegetables through fall. Calling ahead or checking with the farm confirms exactly what's ready on a given week.
Is Hickory Hill Farm open year-round?
Most Virginia pick-your-own farms operate seasonally, typically from late spring through early fall when crops are actively producing. It's worth calling (540) 269-6251 or checking directly with the farm to confirm current hours and seasonal availability before visiting.
