We're ready to go for u-pick Tuesday, 6/2/26. We will open u-pick from 8am-1pm. We're hoping that this will also allow for picking on Wednesday morning. We will have some pre-picked strawberries available at the stand while supply lasts.

WOW! Y'all are amazing! We had record breaking crowds this morning and we are PICKED OUT of strawberries for today and tomorrow. This means u-pick is closed today and tomorrow (5/30/26 & 5/31/26). We do not have any pre-picked strawberries left either. We will reevaluate tomorrow to see if we're able to open again on Monday, 6/1/26. The berries need time to ripen! Thank you & please follow our page for updates. The stand will remain open as usual for plants & fresh garden produce.

Strawberry U-pick starts TODAY, 5/27/26!

A few tips and reminders for picking:
🍓Look UNDER the leaves of the plants - that's where the strawberries hide.
🍓You want a bit of stem left on the berry when you pick. Pulling it off without the stem will cause your berries to be damaged & to decay faster.
🍓Use the pinch & snap technique. If you have long fingernails, this will be even easier for you to do. Cradle the berry in your fingers while pinching with your nail just above on the stem. The stem will snap and you will have a perfect, undamaged berry!
🍓Please do not jump over rows. There are many berries on the edges of rows that will be smashed if you row hop.
🍓It is not unusual for strawberries to have dirt on them. A simple wash at home before eating is all that is needed.
🍓Lastly, please leave the white flowers and green berries on the plant to continue growing and ripening. These turn into our beautiful strawberries! Strawberries taste best when they are fully red.

U-pick strawberries are $3.25/lb ($5 minimum per u-pick purchase). We provide the box and a wagon ride to the field. Already-picked strawberries are $7/quart or $48.00 for an 8 quart flat.
