Please understand that we are a very busy u-pick destination (being the only certified organic u-pick in the area) and we only have as many strawberries as we have, so that is out of our control. Please be patient with our staff and we appreciate your support for a local organic family-run farm!

*Note: Once U-Pick opens- please check out the calendar for daily crop updates and availability!
What’s Already Picked?
*Please keep in mind, we are a very popular u-pick destination, so we have A LOT of u-pickers daily. For BERRY SEASON ONLY – There are many days that we have so many berry pickers come visit us that we sell out of berries for that day and must allow the fields time for more berries to ripen. Please call ahead before heading out if you want to verify if a certain crop is in abundance that day!
