Frequently Asked Questions
🍑 Peach Picking
Q: Are your peaches in season now?
A: Yes! Our peaches are now in peak season — come and enjoy a sweet and flavorful picking experience with your family and friends. Peach season typically runs from June through mid-August.
Q: Do you sell peaches by the pound or by the box?
A: Both! Peaches are $1.99 per pound, $30 for a full box, and $15 for a half box. You can pick as much or as little as you like. We provide boxes for you to use.
Q: Can I pick peaches that are still firm?
A: Yes, you can! Just lay them out in a single layer at home. They’ll soften over a few days to a week and taste just as sweet and juicy as those ripened on the tree.
Q: Can I pick peaches and roses outside regular hours?
A: Our regular hours are 9 AM–3 PM, but if you need to come earlier, feel free to do so. Please use Venmo to pay — our QR code is posted at the entrance table. When you pay, just leave a short message on Venmo, like “5 pounds of peaches” or "a dozen of roses" so we know what you picked. Thank you!
🌹 Rose Picking
Q: Are your roses award-winning?
A: Yes. Roses grown in the Gemini Peach and Rose Farm won the Dallas Rose Show with the "best hybrid tea" 5 times and won the Fort Worth Rose Show with the "best hybrid tea" 4 times. You’ll find these beautiful varieties right here in our rose garden.
Q: How do I cut roses at the farm?
A: It's easy and fun!
-
Grab a clipper from the table at the entrance.
-
Fill your container with water (water station is next to the front row of rose garden beds).
-
Head into the garden and look for blooms that are half open— outer petals unfolding, center still slightly closed. That's the sweet spot.
-
Snip the stem about 1-2 cm above a leaf (look for five-leaflet stems if you can).
-
Place the rose straight into water - this helps keep it fresh and happy.
Try to skip the ones that are fully bloomed(don't last long) or tightly closed buds(often don't open).
Q: Do you sell rose plants?
A: Yes. And many are unique hybrids that you won't find anywhere else.
Q: Do you provide scissors or clippers?
A: Yes — clippers are available at the entrance. Please return them after use so others can enjoy too.
Q: Do I need to bring anything for rose picking?
A: We suggest bringing your own container (bucket, jar, or vase) for collecting roses. We have a few extras on hand, but bringing your own helps!
🚗 Visiting the Farm
Q: Are kids welcome?
A: Absolutely! Kids are welcome to explore and help with picking. Please keep an eye on them, especially around the creek, tools, or rose bushes.
Q: Can I bring a stroller or wagon?
A: Yes. We recommend strollers or wagons with large wheels, as the terrain can be grassy or uneven.
Q: Can I bring my dog?
A: Yes — friendly dogs are welcome! Just make sure your pup is well-behaved around others, and please clean up after them, and make sure they stay cool on hot days. We'll have fresh water out.
Q: Is there a restroom available?
A: Yes — we have a portable restroom on-site. It’s cleaned regularly by a service provider. But just a heads -up--it’s a simple setup, so please plan accordingly.
Q: Can we bring a picnic?
A: Definitely! Feel free to bring food and enjoy a picnic at our shaded tables. Please tidy up afterward so everyone can enjoy the space.
Q: Can I stay overnight at the farm?
A: For everyone’s safety, we ask that all visits take place during daytime hours. Please note we have 24/7 security cameras in place.
🥤Food & Drinks
Q: Do you have drinks available at the farm?
A: Yes! On most Saturdays, we offer homemade peach lemonade made with real lemon juice and our own peach syrup, using farm-grown peaches. It’s always fresh and ice cold.
👉 Coming soon: homemade peach ice cream!!
