For six generations, the Lee family has been growing sweet, juicy fruits, crisp, snappy veggies and turkeys so tasty you’ll want to gobble it up. Throughout the growing months, you can head into the fields and load up baskets of whatever is ripe. If they grow it, you can pick it and they grow lots of Jersey Fresh produce – peas, sweet corn, spinach, cherries, peaches, all kinds of berries and lots more. It is a good idea to call ahead to make sure what you want is ready for picking. And when Halloween rolls around, it is all about pumpkins . . . big pumpkins, small pumpkins, just-the-right-size pumpkins.
But it is the Lee’s turkeys that bring people from around the region to their farm. No matter how big or small your family is, they have a turkey that will fit on your table. And if even the smallest turkey is too big, just select your favorite parts. Fresh turkeys are available October – January 2. The rest of the year, the turkeys are frozen. And the only time you have to place an advance order for an oven-ready bird is Thanksgiving and Christmas.
City slicker kids, as well as country-grown youngsters will enjoy tours of the Lee farm. Hayride and walking tours will keep the young’uns fascinated.
