Photography policy
There is no longer a peach orchard at the Iron Station farm. The orchard in Iron Station got too old to produce peaches, so we cut it down to plant elderberries. The only orchard available is now at the Dallas farm.
Photographers are welcome on our farm. The grounds are free to our customers. We don't charge a fee for customers to take pictures. We ask that all photographers arrive during the hours we're open.

Peach blossom photography
Professional photographers and amateurs are welcome to take pictures in the peach blossoms. Generally, the peaches bloom in the second week of March, though it varies year to year.
Most of the year, we say that the grounds are free to our customers/photographers during the hours we're open. But... the peaches bloom in March. And we are closed from Halloween until the beginning of April. Sooooo... for peach blossoms, you can come anytime except Mondays or Tuesdays.
The peak times people take pictures in the orchard are weekend evenings. If you would like to come at a time when it is unlikely other people are in the orchard, please come at a non-peak time.
Because the orchard is across the busy highway from the store, it is best to park in the grass right beside the orchard. We are scared someone will get hit walking across the busy highway. If you have kids with you, please be aware that the road is quite dangerous and the orchard is not fenced.

Awwwww, shucks!!
Here are four easy ways you can keep our farm thriving:
- We need more pretty pictures of the farm in all the different seasons to use on Facebook and in our advertising. If all our wonderful photographers took just one picture of the farm that shows us off, we would be golden! You can email the pictures to linebergersfarm@gmail.com.
- Like us on Facebook. That way, when our crops are ready, you'll be the first to know.
- Give us some social media love! Your followers could become our followers if you tag us when you post those gorgeous snapshots!
- Purchase something in the store (unless it's during peach blossom season when we are closed).
