The Berry Basket Farm
Pick-Your-Own Strawberries

2022 BERRY SEASON UPDATE:
Thanks for checking in! Things are busy busy busy on the farm this spring. There is much to do before strawberries are ready to be picked but we're optimistic that we'll have a good crop and a great turnout in June when the berries ripen.
We have had a cool spring and some late freezing weather but the berries have been tucked in under their warm layer of straw. Our spring processes are to uncover the berries, keep out as many of the weeds as we can and plant a few new berry plants for future years.
If you'd like to learn more about how to grow strawberries send us a message, we always looking for interested helpers, volunteers and team members who enjoy being outside.
