When to Pick: Timing is Everything
American persimmons are typically ready to pick from mid-September to early November. The exact timing depends on the weather each year. The fruit ripens gradually, and it must be soft to be fully sweet. For the best Persimmon U-Pick experience, plan your visit when the fruit is at its peak. Therefore, we encourage you to come early in the season to ensure the best selection.
