OPEN Thursday, April 18th, 9AM - 5PM

🍓 Exciting News: We are trying something new this season by offering some pre-picked baskets of strawberries available on weekdays. Pre-picked berries are $20/basket. Please note that we'll start picking at opening each morning, so while opening is always a great time to show up to pick your own berries, we likely won't have any available for pre-picked purchase right at opening because it'll take a bit of time to pick some. Since this is a new venture it'll take us some time to determine the sweet spot of how many baskets we should pre-pick per day. We can't guarantee at any one time when you show up that we'll have pre-picked berries available, but we'll do our best. 😊 We appreciate your support as we grow in this new endeavor! Of course, you can also pick-your-own berries available for $15/basket.

After you grab a basket or two, we invite you to take a walk through our greenhouses to check out our plant selection. Our greenhouses are slam full of bedding plants! Here is a list of our current inventory in our larger greenhouse:

Annual Flowers: Marigold, Vinca, Zinnia, Verbena, Portulaca, Hypoestes (Polka Dot Plant), Salvia, Impatiens, Snapdragon, Petunia, Celosia, Torenia, Candytuft, Begonia, Alyssum, Melampodium, Ageratum, Dusty Miller, and Dianthus

Herbs: Chives, Basil, Dill, Lavender, Catnip, Oregano, Marjoram, Parsley, Sweet Herb, Peppermint, Sage, Lemon Balm, and Summer Savory

Vegetable Transplants: Lots of different types of Tomatoes, Peppers, Cucumbers and a few other vegetable transplants as well :-)

We want to give a shout out to our three phenomenal staff members who keep our patch running smoothly. Tatum, Audrey, and Ella are the absolute best in the world and we are lucky to have them! If you enjoy a productive, clean, weed free, eye-catching strawberry patch here at Browder's Fresh Pickins, it's all because of their hard work.

Here's a GIF that Audrey made to visualize how strawberries ripen 🍓

Greenhouses OPEN Sunday, April 14th, 10AM - 4PM Strawberry Patch Open for Light Picking

 

Shout out to ALL of you who came to our strawberry patch over the past couple of days! We truly appreciate you supporting our family's farm. Our greenhouses will be OPEN Sunday, April 14th, 10AM - 4PM. Our strawberry patch will also be open for light picking as well. Of the three varieties we grow, the Ruby Junes are totally picked out and will need a day or two to ripen. There are some Sweet Charlie's and some Chandlers that are on the verge of ripe and some will ripen overnight. There are signs in the patch indicating the location of each variety. It's always best to start at the furthest end of the row and pick as you head back towards the tent.

*Especially if you live farther away, tomorrow isn't the best day to come pick berries. It's still quite early in the season and there will be more berries available soon
