We'll be closed for ripening Thursday & Friday, June 4th & 5th. We may open on Saturday morning, but we'll have to wait to see how much the warm sun ripens the patch over the next couple of days. We'll post an update on Friday evening 🌞

Strawberry Patch Open Wednesday, June 3rd, 9AM - 1PM

OPEN Tuesday, June 2nd, 9AM - 1PM

After a couple of days rest, the strawberries ripened more than we thought they would; this photo was taken this afternoon. Of course, it's no April picking, but for June it's decent, and the weather will be refreshingly cool for June 😊

In addition to u-pick strawberries, we also have some u-pick blueberries available. Our blueberry plants are still fairly young, and we estimate we only have about 20 quarts of blueberries available to pick. *There will not be any pre-pick blueberries or strawberries for sale for the remainder of the season.

🍓U-pick strawberries $18/basket (baskets provided, holds 3 quarts)
🫐U-pick blueberries $10/quart (container provided)
🍠 20 lb. box of regular sized sweet potatoes for $15
🍠 20 lb. box of jumbo sized sweet potatoes for $10
🧅 U-pick spring onions $1.50 ea.

Open Saturday morning, May 30th, 9AM - Noon

🌞 Saturday's weather is looking absolutely wonderful! We're nearing the end of the season (not sure of the exact date just yet). There are some ripe berries in the patch, but they are not plentiful, and it will take longer to fill your basket. You can move the green leaves around to find some hidden gems. We will not have any pre-pick berries available for the remainder of the season.

Saturday, May 30th will be the last day for free lettuce. The warm weather has caused it to bolt, so you're welcome to come get all you want for free.

🍓U-pick strawberries $18/basket
🍠 20 lb. box of regular sized sweet potatoes for $15
🍠 20 lb. box of jumbo sized sweet potatoes for $10
🌺 All remaining bedding plants $2 ea.
🧅 U-pick spring onions $1.50 ea.

I hope you are having a beautiful Memorial Day as we all remember and honor those who gave their lives for our freedom. 🇺🇸

We walked the patch today and the berries are steadily ripening. Looks like the rain will be around for one more day, so we'll be closed on Tuesday. We plan to on being open on Wednesday, May 27th, 9AM - 1PM. 😊

05/20/2026

Open Wednesday, May 20th, 9AM - 1PM

It's a great time to come for some sweet deals on lettuce, spring onions, bedding plants, and sweet potatoes! Grab some on Wednesday to prepare for your Memorial Day weekend celebrations!

As for strawberries, it's far from ideal picking conditions. There aren't many ripe ones in the field, so if you're only seeking berries, it's not the best time to visit.

It looks like a decent chance of rain for most of the next week. We'll close our farm from Thursday, May 21st through at least Monday, May 25th. As for the date for the end of the season, we'll continue monitoring the crop and we'll see what it looks like after several days of rest.

Deals for Wednesday, May 20
ALL Bedding Plants $2 each *Heads up, this is the last day that the bedding plants will be available for sale*
Combo Deal: Get 20 lbs. of sweet potatoes, 3 head of lettuce, and 3 spring onions for just $20
