We're all going to miss the typical festivals and other summer events we're used to attending in Bucks County this year. But there's still fun to be had! Here's a list of events that you can put on your calendar for the upcoming months.

Please note that this list is accurate as of the date of publication. Most events will have safety precautions in place. We hope to add to it as restrictions are eased and more things are announced!

Pick Your Own at Shady Brook Farm

931 Stony Hill Road, Yardley

Shady Brook Farm opened their Pick-Your-Own events with Strawberries on June 3. There is plenty of fresh air and wide-open space to allow guests to select and harvest their own produce while maintaining social distance. In addition, there will be a number of safety precautions in place, including limiting the number of people on wagon rides, separating groups by two rows while picking, etc. Read more about the Safe Operating Procedures at their website. Purchase entry tickets at this link. Tickets are $5 per person. Children under the age of 2 are free. Pay for what you pick, prices vary.

Following strawberries, pick-your-own blueberries and wildflowers began on Wednesday, June 24!

Tip: Fresh berries are delicious on their own, or used in baking! Here's a link to a recipe used for Blueberry Lemon Scones made with berries picked at Shady Brook. (Recipe was tweaked by grating the butter and freezing the dough overnight for lighter, flakier scones. But freezing for 1 hour would do the trick, too! )
