u-pick

Customer-harvested farm produce

U-pick describes a farm or orchard where customers harvest produce themselves rather than buying pre-picked goods: We spent Saturday morning at a u-pick strawberry farm.

The arrangement typically offers lower prices since the customer provides the labor.

Also called pick-your-own.
