Planning a strawberry trip

How it works

Most berry farms hand you a container at the stand and charge by weight when you come back. Rows are opened and rested in rotation, so staff will point you to whichever block is picking well that day.

Go early. Berries are picked over by mid-afternoon on a good weekend, and morning is far cooler in the rows.

What to bring

  • Cash — plenty of smaller farms still prefer it, even where cards are accepted
  • Closed shoes and clothes you don't mind staining
  • Sun protection; berry fields have almost no shade
  • A cooler for the drive home if it's hot
