Opening Day,May 20, 2014

We are opening a couple weeks early this year. It all depends on the weather and how the berries respond so sometimes we're left rushing around like chickens with our heads cut off. Not a pretty picture.
Our opening day will be Tuesday, May 20th. The berries are a little smaller on average this year but still very tasty. Our U-Pick price is $1.10/lb.
We added some red and black raspberries this spring so be thinking of us next summer for those. I think our motto for raspberries should be "If at first you don't succeed, plant again and again".
Hope to see you all this summer!

End of Season

It's the end of another successful season of strawberries. The patches did very well and we had steady pickers so that none were wasted. We thank everyone for their support and hope to see you all again next year.

Opening Day

It's a couple weeks earlier than normal but the strawberries are ripening and ready to be picked. We are opening the field on Monday, May 20th. The wonderful hot weather we had for 2 weeks really brought the berries on fast and they are delicious. We planted 6000 plants earlier this spring and they are blooming as we (electronically) speak. Looks like it's going to be a great year for the strawberries but, alas, we won't have any raspberries this year.
