I appreciate seeing everyone's response to my comment about calling ahead. Not living on a farm, (but being interested in them) didn't give me the insight into recognizing how much of an interruption random visits can be. Since we've visited a few places now, we 'get it'.

Its a courtesy thing that isn't really talked about, so it escaped our awareness until we actually made the mistakes ourselves. And there are those farms that accept passers-by that help confuse the issue. (i.e. We just toured a place in France 2 months ago that charged a measly 2 euros for a tour, and they didn't even charge for the tour if you actually bought some of their produce. We would have happily paid the extra!)

Seeing everyone's response has hammered the concept home. Thank you!
