Our Strawberries
Each of our strawberry varieties has been selected for exceptional strawberry flavor, large size, deep red color and traditional shape.
Our strawberries are great for fresh eating, dipping in chocolate, strawberry short cake, pie (fresh & cooked), jam making and freezing.
Already picked Strawberries are available at the Farm Stand.
Seasons
The June strawberry season usually lasts 3 to 4 weeks. The length of the season depends on the amount of heat and rain received. If it is hot and/or rainy it will be shorter than if it is cool and dry.
Summer strawberries (Day Neutral/Ever bearing) are available throughout the late summer and early fall months. They are exceptionally sweet and juicy. The summer strawberry season generally lasts 3 months.
For best storage keep the berries you pick refrigerated.
As with all produce, always wash before use.
