Closing for the 2023 Season

  

Hello! It looks like lots of rain headed our way. We strive for your picking experience to be pleasant each time you visit our farm. The heat of June combined with a week of rain is going to significantly decrease the quality of the strawberries. With this in mind, we've decided to go ahead and close the farm for the 2023 season, ahead of all this rain. We had been hoping that the weather would cooperate to allow just a bit more time for picking, but the 7 day forecast isn't looking promising, so we've decided it's time. Thank you for your incredible support of our small family farm! 😊

OPEN, Monday, Juneteenth, 8AM - 1PM

 

It was great to see so many of you this weekend! The strawberry patch was fairly well picked today, but we anticipate with this heat overnight that more will ripen. We also have u-pick yellow squash, zucchini, cherry tomatoes, and string beans available too!

📸 A cool treat to beat the heat! Lucy made milkshakes & we had a little left over, so Henry used the extra to make some popsicles - YUM! Shout out to my cousin Babs for the fun strawberry popsicle holders 🍓💕
