FARM MISSION & VERMONT COVID-19 PANDEMIC  2022
 
Our mission during the Covid Pandemicis: "To provide ALL customers a beautiful, safe and healthy place to pick Organic (cng) Berries & Apples as a nutrient dense food source for now and throughout the winter."

Our Farm has one (1) Important Public Health Regulation for 2022:  

1 --- ANYONE WHO SHOWS SYMPTOMS OF ILLNESS IS PROHIBITED FROM ENTERING PYO FARMS

The state of Vermont's imposed regulations are designed to REDUCE RISK of spread. Symptoms of illness include runny nose, coughing, sneezing, noticeable fever, etc.

When you first arrive to the farm, please read Vermont State's "Limited Liability" posted on the gate to the blueberry orchard and Farm Store. Also please review Vermont State's Regulation posted by the farm store door and our privacy statement regarding your personal health / questions / etc. 

"ALL YOU CAN PICK N' EAT" RETURNS! 
Now that we know the Corona virus does not reside on plant food surfaces, we are able to resume our very popular"All You Can Pick n' Eat" option for $3.50 per person
This is a win-win option for all. Everyone can relax  - Parents don't have to stress out about nagging their children for eating berries, we don't have to nag you for eating berries, and our USDA loan officer doesn't have to nag us about another loss of livelihood to farmers, which occurs when folks continually eat berries that they are not paying for.  :-) 
 
HEALTH & SAFETY 
  
PICKING & TRANSPORT CONTAINERS  -- Please bring your own transport containers, but leave them in the car until you are ready to check-out. We will provide you with clean, sanitized picking containers. After your berries / apples are weighed and paid for, take your fruit to the tables where you will transfer them from our containers to yours. If you don't have containers, you can purchase recyclable GREEN bags for .10 cents each. 
 
HAND WASHING / HAND SANITIZER --- Everyone is encouraged to sanitize their hands (with provided sanitizer) BEFORE picking berries/apples, AFTER using the Porta-Potty and AFTER coughing or sneezing. Hand Sanitizer stations are located in the 'Check Out Wait Area', Farm Store, Porta-potty and the Blueberry Nook.
HEALTH OFFICERS --- Sweet Seasons Farm Owners / Farmers are authorized Health & Safety Officers. We ensure that all customers / employees understand and can remain compliant with Health & Safety Regulations while at the farm. Any instructions you receive from a Health & Safety Officer will be approached with kindness and respect, Thank You. 
 
Thank you for reviewing Vermont State's Covid Regulations at our farm for 2022. While we would love that everyone come to pick berries /apples / and Chocolate at our farm this year, we also realize that for some adults and children, this may not be possible. For this reason, you can place orders for apples, berries and chocolate at our online store.  We look forward to serving you this summer, fall and holiday season!   https://www.sweetseasonsfarmvt.com/copy-of-organic-cng-fruit
