Agritourism & Farm Experiences near Millington, TN

Millington

Harris Blueberries grows blueberries on Sledge Road in Millington, in northern Shelby County just above Memphis. Blueberry season across West Tennessee runs from June into July, when u-pick patches like this draw families out of the city. Bring containers and check the ripening report before you go, since a hot spell can move the season up. Call ahead to confirm the field is open and picking is available.

Bartlett

Priddy Farms sells Christmas trees and pumpkins on North Germantown Road in Bartlett, a suburb northeast of Memphis in Shelby County. The farm works two seasons: a fall pumpkin patch through October, then choose-and-cut Christmas trees from late November into December. Both runs keep short seasonal hours, so confirm dates before visiting.

Memphis

Spooky Nights was a seasonal Halloween haunt listed at 500 North Pine Lake Drive in the Bartlett area of Memphis. The "2013" in the name points to a specific season, and no current website or active listing turns up online, so it appears to be a past event rather than an operating attraction.

Burlison

Fletcher Farm works land on Munford Giltedge Road in Burlison, a Tipton County community in West Tennessee north of Memphis. The listing marks it as agritourism. Public sources didn't detail its crops or the activities it opens to visitors.

Agricenter International farms roughly 600 research acres on Walnut Grove Road in east Memphis, billed as one of the largest urban farms in the country. The public side includes a seasonal farmers market, a sunflower trail, catch-and-release fishing lakes, and an RV park, plus school agriculture programs for thousands of students each year. Fall brings a harvest festival. Details at agricenter.org.

Memphis

The Mid-South Maze is Agricenter International's fall corn maze, cut into the fields at 7777 Walnut Grove Road in East Memphis. Each autumn it opens a large themed maze alongside family activities on the Agricenter's working farmland, which also hosts a farmers market, sunflower trail, and research plots. Memphis families have treated the maze as a seasonal tradition. It runs weekends through the fall; check the Agricenter for current dates and admission before visiting.

Burlison

Anderson Orchard grows tree fruit on Elm Grove Road in Burlison, a Tipton County community in the West Tennessee flatlands north of Memphis. Orchards in this area typically run from summer stone fruit into fall apples. Current hours and what's available for picking aren't listed online.

Memphis

The Cotton Museum occupies the historic trading floor of the Memphis Cotton Exchange at 65 Union Avenue downtown, where brokers once set cotton prices for the world. Exhibits trace how the crop shaped the Mid-South economy, the Mississippi Delta, and Memphis itself. It's open Monday through Saturday, 10am to 5pm, with the last admission an hour before closing.

Germantown

Bobby Lanier Farm Park is a 10-acre agricultural education and demonstration site run by the City of Germantown on Cross Country Drive. It holds the Beasley Community Garden, where residents grow food using organic methods, plus a seasonal petting farm open Tuesday mornings from April through September. A Thursday farmers market brings local produce and goods to the site in summer. Walking trails, wildflower plantings, and picnic areas round out the grounds.

Collierville

Wilson Blueberry Farm is a small family farm on Highway 193 in Collierville, east of Memphis, growing naturally grown blueberries for more than a decade. You can pick your own or buy berries already picked during the summer season. It's low-key and family-run, with the Wilsons handling everything themselves. Call 901-581-1531 to check what's ripe, follow their Facebook page for open days, or use the contact form on their site before making the trip.

South of Covington

DaZe in a MaZe cuts four seasonal mazes on Highway 74 between Covington and Marshall, including a six-acre corn maze and a seven-acre "jungle" corn maze plus two hay mazes for younger kids. The fall site adds a petting zoo, dino dig, pumpkin patch, hay-rack and barrel-train rides, and concessions, with flashlight maze runs on Saturday nights.

Collierville

Menagerie Farm is on Shea Road in Collierville, a suburb southeast of Memphis in Shelby County. The name points to a mix of animals, and the farm carries an agritourism listing for visits or events. Collierville sits at the edge of Memphis's growth, where working farms still share the map with new subdivisions. Contact the farm directly for what it keeps and offers.

Covington

Ellie's Jellies & Jams makes small-batch jams and jellies out of Covington, the seat of Tipton County in West Tennessee north of Memphis. Its Burnett Lane listing carries little beyond the name. Contact directly to find out which flavors are available and where to buy them.

Olive Branch

Our Family Farm is a small agritourism operation on State Line Road in Olive Branch, in DeSoto County at Mississippi's northwest corner, just south of the Memphis metro and the Tennessee line. No products, hours, or website are documented online.

Rossville

Tom's Farm on Murrell Road in Rossville shifts with the seasons: pick-your-own strawberries and summer vegetables early in the year, then pumpkins, corn mazes, hayrides, and bonfires once fall arrives. September and October are the open months, daily 9 a.m. to 9 p.m., while the rest of the year runs by appointment. The farm hosts Scout troops, 4-H groups, schools, and churches.
