Dewberry Farm hosted it's first U-Pick Tulips in 2018. Our first year, we planted 40,000 tulip bulbs, and in 2024, we planted 140,000 tulips. We are the largest U-Pick Tulips in North Carolina.
Tulips are an early-Spring flower, we generally open around March 22 to April 5th. Bloom time depends on weather.
We plant 55 varieties of tulips!

How to Pick Your Tulips
When you see a tulip you want, reach down as close to the soil as close as possbile
Grasp the stem and pull straight up
You might get a flower bulb. Flower bulbs are cut off at checkout.
Pick as many flowers as you like, but only pick what you intend to purchase.
Bulbs
You may pre-purchase bulbs for Fall pick-up.
Please do not dig up tulip bulbs in the tulip field.
When you dig up bulbs this early in the season, you damage the root system of the flower and all the tulips around it, causing them to die. Because the flower is getting picked, the bulb won't get the nutrients it needs to grow.
If you pick a tulip by accident, you cannot put it back in the ground. The tulip will die. Once you pick a tulip, it's yours. If you stick them back in the ground, it's a loss for the farm. It's like eating food and not paying for it, it's one of the reasons tulips are included in our admission price.
Entry Fee for U-Pick Tulips is $13 for adults and includes three tulips. Children over 2 is $5 and does not include flowers.
