Andy started this business on his own back in 2014 before we had our 4 kids, all within 17 months. In 2018, we realized the potential and demand, so we decided to go all in. all on our own in between balancing 4 kiddos and Andy’s career. When we started brainstorming about what we wanted to name our LLC, we knew we wanted something to reflect what’s most important to us - our kids.

We started this business for them. To create a way to spend time together as a family, build a business from the ground up, and create the life we’ve always dreamed of. If you’re new here, welcome! If you’ve been a loyal customer, thank you. It’s because of you that we have been able to continue on, season after season. We are looking forward to what’s yet to come…

There is a VERY SMALL amount today - 20 quarts to be exact.

Gates will stay open until the berries are gone. We won’t even be throwing out the signs along the road today. If the gate is open, we have berries available!

In preparation for all the strawberry jams, shortcakes, cheesecakes, cookies, jams, etc. that are about to be served across Lenawee County - we wanted to share our favorite conversion chart. 🍓

Not sure how many strawberries you'll need when "mathing" with flats and quarts?

Good things are always worth waiting for - obviously we are talkin' about the strawberries! 🍓

The berries are moving along and loving all this warm sunshine, they just are not quite ready, yet. They are receiving LOTS of water daily to help them stay hydrated and continue to ripen. We are just as excited as you are!

Stay tuned for more updates & OPENING DAY announcements!

We come from the school of “whatever it takes to get the job done”! 🙃

After what felt like weeks trying to get the plastic mulch layer to work properly…

actual time 🟰two days

We were able to think outside the box and NOT let the fabricated implement own us and we were able to lay down homes for 4,600 more strawberry plants that you’ll be snackin’ on next summer! 🍓

“This will be the most expensive holiday on the calendar. Every hotdog, every hamburger, every spin around the lake, or drink with family and friends - it’s a debt - purchased by others.

This is not about all who served...that day comes in the fall. This one is in honor of those who paid in life and blood; whose moms never saw them again whose dads wept in private, whose wives raised kids alone, and whose kids only remembered them in pictures.

This isn’t simply a day off. This is a day to remember - that others paid for every free breath you ever get to take.

Freedom.” 🇺🇸

Strawberry season is getting closer and we could not be more excited! We uncovered the strawberry plants a couple of weeks ago and have preparing the fields for the 2026 season!

Over the next week we will be planting 4,600 NEW strawberry plants and those delicious berries will be ready for your tastebuds next summer! We added a few new varieties that we know you are going to absolutely LOVE!

Returning this season are our fan-favorite varieties, along with some new varieties we planted last spring:

🍓 Honeoye - Early June

🍓 Flavorfest - Early June

🍓 Wendys — Early June

🍓 Jewels — Mid-June

🍓 Dickens — Late June

Right now, the fields are FULL of strawberry blossoms, which means one thing...farm-fresh strawberries are on the way! 🌸➡️🍓

We are anticipating the first round of berries will be ready for pick-up during 𝙏𝙃𝙀 𝙁𝙄𝙍𝙎𝙏 𝙒𝙀𝙀𝙆 𝙊𝙁 𝙅𝙐𝙉𝙀. And let’s be honest, those grocery store strawberries don’t even compare to sun-ripened berries straight from the farm!

Stay tuned for more berry updates and our official opening day announcement! 🍓
