Agritourism & Farm Experiences near Gainesville, GA

Gainesville

Cool Springs Blueberry Farm grows blueberries in Gainesville, the Hall County seat on the shores of Lake Lanier. North Georgia's blueberry season typically runs from early June through July; specific picking hours for this farm aren't confirmed by any public listing found.

Murrayville

Sugar Hill Berry Farm is a family-owned operation in Murrayville growing peaches, blueberries, muscadines, and vegetables for pick-your-own visitors. The farm keeps weekend hours only, Saturday and Sunday from 9am to 5pm, and posts current picking conditions to Facebook before each opening.

Gainesville

The Kinsey Family Farm on Jot-em Down Road in Gainesville runs a nursery through spring and summer selling container and B&B trees, shrubs, and perennials, then shifts to pumpkins and fall harvest displays before closing the year with live, pre-cut, and cut-your-own Christmas trees.

Gillsville

Snare Farm sits on Gillsville Highway in Gillsville, a small Hall County community near Gainesville. No crops, hours, or contact information are listed publicly for this agritourism listing.

Buford

Buford Corn Maze sits on Bennett Road in Buford, the city that straddles the Gwinnett-Hall county line northeast of Atlanta. It's a seasonal fall attraction built around a corn maze, as the name states.

Clermont

Roberts Family Blueberry Farm grows organic blueberries in the foothills of the North Georgia mountains, with u-pick season running mid-May through mid-September most years. A gallon runs about $15, ready-picked berries less, and the farm also sells its own blueberry syrup and dressing. It's a working family operation on Clarks Bridge Road — no frills, just bushes, buckets, and berries handled the way a small farm handles them.

Cumming

Warbington Farms grows strawberries and blackberries on Crow Road and sells farm-raised beef straight from its store. U-cut flower fields open alongside a fun park built for birthday parties, school field trips, and a summer farm camp. Hours shift with the weather and the harvest, so the farm posts current picking days — usually Tuesdays and Saturdays — on Facebook before each visit.

Cumming

Blueberry Garden's U-Pick Blueberry Farm & Nursery operates on Crow Road outside Cumming, combining a u-pick blueberry patch with a plant nursery, as the name states. No verified hours, pricing, or contact details are available online at this time. Call ahead before visiting to confirm the picking season.

Chateau Elan is Georgia's largest wine producer, working from a chateau-style estate in Braselton under winemaker Simone Bergese. The tasting room pours more than 30 wines, from muscadine to the reserve 'Fingerprint Collection' made with Italian and California grapes, and the operation has picked up more than 300 international awards. The property also runs guided tours and a full wine shop, open Tuesday through Sunday.

Dawsonville

Hell's Gates isn't a farm at all — it's an outdoor haunted-house attraction built on church property at 329 Harmony Church Road, with eight staged scenes involving live actors, pyrotechnics, and stunt effects. It runs seasonally out of Lighthouse Baptist Church facilities each fall, marketed as an alternative to Atlanta's indoor haunted houses. Whoever tagged this as agritourism was working from the address, not the actual business — worth flagging if accuracy matters to the listing.

Clermont

Family-owned creamery on Cleveland Highway built on its own dairy, Glo-Crest, where 210 Holsteins are milked twice a day. The all-natural, non-homogenized dairy products come straight off that herd, and farm tours are available with 24 hours' notice. It's a working dairy operation first, ice cream stop second — the kind of place where the cows in the pasture are the reason the milk tastes different.

Dawsonville

Uncle Shucks packs 15 acres in Dawsonville with fall activities: a corn maze, pumpkin patch, wagon rides, jumping pads, a tire mountain, kids' mazes, and gem mining. The season runs select dates from late September through early November, and the farm has drawn crowds large enough to rank among Georgia's better-known fall destinations.

Sweet Acre Farms was Hall County's first farm winery, a 46-acre operation pouring fruit wines made from blueberry, peach, and blackberry grown on the property. A fire damaged the Alto tasting room in January 2025, and the winery has been pouring instead from its Helen, Georgia location, open Thursday through Sunday with reduced hours. Call ahead before visiting the original Bill Wilson Road address, since much of that site remains closed.

Cumming

Hopewell Sunflower Farm grows u-pick sunflower fields on Hopewell Road in Cumming, about 50 minutes north of Atlanta, with blooms peaking in August on a roughly ten-day cycle. Field access is free with a cut-flower purchase, and the farm store carries flowers alongside a small petting-animal setup.

Henderson Lakeside Farm is on Pilgrim Mill Road near Cumming, in Forsyth County's Lake Lanier region. No public listing describes current crops, animals, or visiting hours.

Dahlonega

This listing's name doubles as its most useful detail: call before you go. The address sits on Highway 19 North in Dahlonega, Lumpkin County, an area known for apple orchards and vineyards in the north Georgia mountains. No posted hours or contact information were found online.

Cleveland

The Densmore Farm is on New Bridge Road in Cleveland, the White County seat in the north Georgia mountains near Helen. It operates as an agritourism farm in a region built around mountain tourism.

Jefferson

O5 Farms is a sixth-generation family property in Jefferson, in Jackson County, that grows blueberries without synthetic pesticides and opens the fields for u-pick and pre-picked sales each June and July. Beyond the berries, the farm keeps chickens and peacocks, rents out a stay called the Rustic Retreat on Airbnb, and hosts a daisy field for photo sessions.

Dahlonega

Maysville

Presley's Farm & Garden isn't a produce farm — it's a farm equipment and outdoor power equipment dealer on Maysville Road, selling and servicing tractors, irrigation systems, and the like. Anyone showing up expecting u-pick strawberries or a corn maze will find parts counters and a service bay instead. It's been in Maysville for years and carries a few hundred followers on its Facebook page, but the business itself belongs on an equipment-dealer directory.

Allison's Honey keeps hives on Lloyds Honey Farm Road in Cleveland, bottling wildflower, sourwood, orange blossom, blackberry, and cotton honey harvested through the region's bee season, which peaks early June through late July. The farm also grows grapes as a small vineyard operation. Open year-round, 9am to 5pm in winter and 9am to 6pm the rest of the year.

Cleveland

Tesnatee River Winery and Meadery makes muscadine wine and craft mead in Cleveland, alongside Allison's Honey — raw, all-natural wildflower and sourwood honey produced on the same farm. The tasting room also stocks farm-to-table jams, jellies, syrups, and seasonal fruit in a boutique setting in the North Georgia mountains. Open daily, with the longest hours on Saturday.

Dawsonville

Herron Farms runs as a small, self-sustaining organic operation on Hickory Trail West outside Dawsonville — rabbits, laying hens, honeybees, and a vermicomposting business selling red worms and African nightcrawlers wholesale for bait and garden beds. It's a family-run mini farm rather than a tourist destination, built around sustainable practices instead of a gift shop. Eggs and honey are sold direct from the property.

Lawrenceville

DJ U Pick Blueberry Farm offers pick-your-own blueberries in Lawrenceville, Gwinnett County, inside metro Atlanta's northeast suburbs. Suburban u-pick farms like this typically run a short June-into-July season; no working website confirms this farm's current hours or pricing.

Cavender Creek Vineyards farms 15 acres in the Appalachian foothills outside Dahlonega, Georgia, with four acres currently planted in vines. The winery grows Norton, the native American wine grape, and is replanting several acres with European varieties. Beyond the tasting room, the property rents three guest houses and hosts weddings; Yelp reviewers give it 4.5 stars across more than 180 reviews.

Dacula

Dacula Briar Patch is in Dacula, in Gwinnett County northeast of Atlanta. It's listed as an agritourism stop; no working website or Facebook page turned up in research, so current activities and seasonal hours aren't confirmed online.

Blackstock Vineyards, on Town Creek Road outside Dahlonega, Georgia, has been rebranded and now operates as Kaya Vineyard & Winery on the same estate-grown vines. Sitting at roughly 1,600 feet elevation, the property pours estate wines with panoramic North Georgia mountain views and runs guided group tours. It holds a 4.0-star rating on Yelp across 162 reviews.

Winder

Angela King's farm sits on Highway 211 Northwest outside Winder in Barrow County, a mix of row crops and pasture in northeast Georgia. No website or social page lists what's currently grown or sold on-site.

Lawrenceville

Randy's Pumpkin Patch built its name on fall attractions — a tractor pull, bungee jump, inflatable corn maze, spider jump, and a haunted house slide — with general admission running around $10 a person. This Braselton Highway address appears in several farm directories, though the business's current operating location is listed as Lawrenceville Highway; anyone planning a visit should confirm which site is active for the current season before making the trip.

Cleveland

CeNita Vineyards sits below Yonah Mountain in Cleveland, Georgia, pouring handcrafted wines — Chambourcin, Chardonnay, Merlot, and a house blend called Summer Breeze — across three tasting areas including an open-air vineyard lawn. The winery hosts weddings with on-site lodging, plus live music and a disc golf course for visiting groups. Dogs are welcome on the grounds.

Dahlonega

Three Sisters calls itself Dahlonega's founding family farm winery, pouring estate-grown wine from a tasting room built around a hand-carved cherry wood bar and Southern folk art. Fat Boy Red is the house best-seller, but the list runs both serious and casual. Outdoor seating looks over the vines toward the mountains, and the property also rents out for weddings and private events.

Dahlonega

Craig and Cydney Kritzer founded Frogtown in 1998 on 57 acres at the foot of the Appalachians, and the winery now farms 40 of those acres in the Dahlonega Plateau AVA using only Georgia-grown grapes. A tri-level gravity-flow building presses the fruit without pumps. The cellar has picked up more than 500 medals at California competitions, and an Italian bistro on-site serves lunch and dinner alongside tastings.

Dahlonega

About 190 blueberry bushes grow on this small u-pick operation north of Dahlonega, with picking season running roughly July 5 through August 5 depending on the year's weather. It's a modest, family-run setup — no gift shop, no hayride, just rows of bushes and a bucket. Call before driving out; hours shift with the harvest, and a late frost or an early-picked patch can end the season faster than the calendar suggests.

Dawsonville

Cold Creek Farm is a working barn wedding venue on Shoal Creek Road, run by Jeff and Susan Buffington across rolling acres that still keep horses. The property blends rustic North Georgia scenery — indoor and outdoor spaces, pasture views — with full wedding services rather than operating as a pick-your-own farm.

Dawsonville

Cold Creek Farm is a barn wedding venue on Shoal Creek Road outside Dawsonville, Georgia, run by Jeff and Susan Buffington since they bought the working farm in 2011. The property hosts weddings almost every weekend of the year, with indoor and outdoor ceremony space for up to 250 guests, on-site overnight accommodations, and rolling pasture grounds with horses.

DJA Farms, also listed as Rodriguez Farm, sits along Mangum Bridge Road in Georgia. Beyond its agritourism registration, no further detail on what's grown or raised here could be verified online.

Dahlonega

Wolf Mountain grows French-style varietals — Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Malbec blends — on a 1,800-foot ridge above Dahlonega, and the estate has picked up over 200 medals at competitions like the San Francisco Chronicle and LA International wine shows. Tastings run Thursday through Sunday, and the on-site restaurant serves brunch, lunch, and dinner with mountain views.

Dahlonega

Cedar House Inn & Yurts is a lodging property on US 19 in Dahlonega, in Georgia's gold-rush-era mountain country. A business under the same name was found operating in St. Augustine, Florida instead, so no verified details for the Dahlonega location are included here.

Dacula

Rancho Alegre Farm runs as a working agricultural education center on 15 acres in Gwinnett County, mixing livestock, gardens, and event space. The farm keeps laying hens, goats, ponies, miniature donkeys, and rabbits alongside a working vegetable garden, and hosts school field trips, summer camps, and scout visits. A pavilion and banquet hall host weddings and receptions, and the farm runs pick-your-own vegetables and a Saturday farmers market.

Cleveland

Lavender Lamb Farm raises sheep alongside lavender on Bugle Drive in Cleveland, in the White County foothills of North Georgia. A website confirms the farm operates under that name, but no further details on hours, products, or visits turned up in research.

Cleveland

This White County wildlife park in Cleveland, also operating as North Georgia Wildlife Park, is built around hands-on animal encounters rather than roadside-zoo viewing: paid sessions with otters, capybaras, sloths, Scottish Highland cattle, and honey badgers, plus VIP and splash-style experiences. It also runs zoo camps, scout overnight stays, school programs, and birthday parties, with a gift shop and season-pass memberships on site.

Jefferson

Black Gold Worm Farm operates on Swann Road outside Jefferson, in Jackson County. The name points to a vermicompost operation producing worm castings, sold in gardening circles as "black gold," though no verified website or contact details turned up online. Call ahead to confirm.

Dahlonega

Montaluce farms its own grapes on a Dahlonega hillside and pours the results in a Tuscan-style dining room with mountain views. The main restaurant serves farm-to-table dishes; a second spot on the property, Trattoria di Montaluce, focuses on handmade pasta and brick-oven pizza. Hours run late — Friday and Saturday seating goes to 10 p.m. — and the estate is a working winery first, restaurant second.

Winder

Double Bridge Farm is a pick-your-own operation on Double Bridge Road outside Winder, Georgia, though at least one directory lists it as presumed permanently closed as of 2023. The farm's site once described participation in a global tree-planting project alongside its produce operation. Call ahead before visiting to confirm current status.

Winder

Pharr Farms is a fourth-generation family operation on Argonne Road offering u-pick strawberries, blueberries, and blackberries through spring and summer, with pumpkins and homegrown vegetables taking over by fall. Strawberry ice cream shows up seasonally too, according to their own picking-day updates. The farm posts open hours on Facebook rather than keeping a fixed schedule, so a quick check before driving out saves a wasted trip.

Winder

Fleeman's offers pick-your-own blueberries in Winder, the Barrow County seat in northeast Georgia. Like most u-pick blueberry operations in the Piedmont, the season likely runs from early June into July, though no working website confirms current hours or picking fees.

Lawrenceville

Randy's Pumpkin Patch runs its fall season from 1460 Lawrenceville Highway — a tractor pull, bungee jump, inflatable corn maze, spider jump, and haunted house slide, with general admission around $10. After pumpkin season wraps, the lot converts to a Christmas tree lot opening in late November. The business has been running for more than two decades, per its own listings, and takes calls and questions year-round.

Demorest

Roland Farm sits on Sidney Roland Road in Demorest, Habersham County, in the north Georgia foothills — road and farm appear to share a family name. No crops or contact details are listed publicly.

Cleveland

The Cottage Vineyard and Winery has grown Chardonnay, Viognier, Syrah, Merlot, Pinot Meunier, and Muscat grapes on its Cleveland, Georgia estate since 2012, with 360-degree mountain views from the tasting deck. The winery pours more than 15 wines, welcomes dogs on the outdoor decks, and lets visitors bring their own food. Wine club members save 5 to 20 percent on bottles.

Cleveland

Serenity Cellars pours Old World-style wines from a Tuscan-inspired tasting room on Laurel Ridge Road, with live music Friday through Sunday and a dog-friendly patio. The winery is family-owned and boutique-sized, favoring dry and sweet wines over a large production list. Reservations run through Tock, and the tasting room sits in White County's stretch of North Georgia wine country.

Sautee-Nacoochee

The Gourd Place calls itself the oldest retail gourdcrafting business in the United States, selling Gourdcraft Originals and Gourd Impressions Pottery from a shop and small gourd museum five miles from Helen, Georgia. Visits are by appointment; email ahead for same-day requests.

Dawsonville

Bradley's Pumpkin Patch grows its own pumpkins on Lawrence Drive and sells them straight off the field, then switches to choose-and-cut Fraser fir Christmas trees in winter and daylilies in spring. A corn maze and country gift shop stocked with homemade jams, salsas, and local honey round out the fall visit. Family visits are free; school and group field trips get discounted rates.

Ball Ground

This farm raises beef, pork, and chicken without hormones, antibiotics, steroids, or grain, selling direct off the property near Ball Ground.

Cumming

Major Farm Fresh Eggs is based on Campground Road in Cumming, the Forsyth County seat north of Atlanta. Eggs are the farm's namesake product, sold alongside a farm-visit experience.

Monroe

Waits Farm grows muscadines and scuppernongs on Old Braswell Road in Monroe — 220 vines across a dozen varieties. U-pick grape season runs from late August into mid-October, with fruit priced at $4.50 a gallon and containers supplied on site. Hours shift with the crop, so call before driving out.

Ball Ground

Fresh Farm Beef and Blueberries, on Old Federal Road in Ball Ground, sells exactly what its name promises: pick-your-own blueberries alongside farm-raised beef. Several regional farm directories confirm the address, but the operation keeps a light footprint online, so hours and season are best confirmed by phone before visiting.

HELEN

Georgia's wine trail starts here — one of the state's oldest and largest wineries, pouring award-winning bottles since 1983 from a tasting room just south of Alpine Helen. The lineup spans three labels: vinifera-driven Habersham and Creekstone, aged in American, French, and Hungarian oak, and Southern Harvest, built on native Muscadine grapes. Fruit comes from the original Stonepile Vineyard near Clarkesville and a newer high-elevation site planted in 2017. Tastings run daily.
