What you need to know about berry picking....

We provide picking trays and carriers which hold about 10 pounds or so.
You may bring your own containers. Get them weighed before you pick.
Strawberries do not ripen after picking, so the entire berry needs to be RED.
Try to keep the green top in tact as the berry will last longer.
Be prepared to work on your knees to find all the berries under the leaves.
Berries grow in full sun, so bring a sun hat, water bottle, and sun screen.
In the morning after the dew is gone is a great time to pick.

Are there any rules?

Kids Rule! So bring the whole family.
Dogs will be asked to nap in the car.
Tasting the berries is OK.
Running through the berries squishes the fruit, so please resist the urge.
Cash or check ONLY.

Now what do I do with all these berries?

Refrigerate your strawberries ASAP.
Cover an open container with wax paper.
Wash and clean berries right before using.
Enjoy berries all year by making sauce, jam, or by freezing.
Save the picking tray by wiping it out with a damp paper towel.
Re-use your picking tray and receive 50 cents off your next purchase!
