“What a special place Slow Farm is! My family and I have been coming here for two years now after moving to Ann Arbor. It's such a dream being able to pick flowers and tomatoes and even asparagus plus so much more. Prices are very reasonable, cheaper than what I usually see at farmers markets. Everyone is friendly and helpful and it's wonderful being out in the fields on a nice summer day taking in the beautiful scenery and smelling the earth and plants. This is a small organic farm so really deserves support so I hope you check this place out!”

“We had a great experience picking strawberries. My husband and I took our two kids and they had fun even though it was a super hot day. They have little basket for you to use but will be returned once you are done picking. If I can remember correctly I think they charge by weight. Depending on what they have during the season they will post it up on there facebook page for picking. We will be going again when our work schedule allow us to.”

“Very, very nice people proving that organic farming is viable and doable. I used to commute past their farm and would always stop for strawberries when they were in. I always found them to be very enthusiastic and knowledgeable about their farm and produce. High marks all around.”

“They open at 9am not 8:50am not 8:55am. I made the mistake of coming too early and they were very nice to me even though I was so early. We had so much fun picking strawberries for our very first time. Everyone was wonderful 10/10”

“Ok, so it's the end of strawberry picking, but I was glad we made it, the workers there are super nice and gave us our baskets and let us do our own picking, my son kept eating what he was picking, but will be coming next year!!”

“We had a great time picking strawberries at this farm. The strawberries are so good and it was an enlightening experience. Strawberry picking is hard!”

“Our little strawberry picker helpers at Slow Farm. It's a good time and good experience for kids.”

“Organic farm , so best of luck finding the strawberry plants between all the weeds . Bought home and realized they don't taste good. Organic = No maintenance , High price Went to a different farm next weekend.”
