Good to know

Questions & answers

Do you offer weddings?

Yes! We have a wedding chapel, plus chairs and tables for rent. As a charity, we offer discounts for pastors and missionary kids — and graduates of Freedom’s Door get their wedding for free. for more options.

Do you offer wedding rededications?

Yes. We also have retired pastors on staff and on our board who can help you with that.

Can I bring a dog?

No, sorry. We have a dog who lives here — and while he loves people, another dog turning up at his home can stir up some territorial trouble. Please leave your pup at home this time.

Can I eat the berries while I pick them?

Yes! We're a charity — it really doesn't matter. We do need to track a minimum weight for our farm status, so if you think you've eaten more than a pound, feel free to drop in a donation to cover it.

How much are kids?

The $20 family ticket includes all your kids. And if you just want to pick berries with a toddler — go for it. They'll rarely eat more than a pound, and you can share a pint between you, with garden admission included either way. We're a charity, and our heart is simply to make spaces where people can enjoy God's creation.
