It's shaping up to be yet another great week of weather! Thankfully, Mother Nature has been good to us this season. Several folks have asked us how long the berry picking season is going to last - great question! This spring has been cooler and drier than normal (La Niña), so we're predicting that our picking season is going to last longer than it usually does. The cooler weather has allowed our plants to continue producing blooms deep into May. It typically takes 30 days from bloom to berry, so we predict we'll still be picking berries a month from now. We grow 5 different varieties of berries, so we *might* even still be picking at the beginning of July. Time will tell, but all signs are pointing to a long strawberry season. 
Also, huge shout out to every.single.one. of you for helping keep our plants healthy by keeping them picked. That's also going to help extend the strawberry season! Thank you for supporting us!
