FARM FUN WITH STRAWBERRIES

Be a farmer for a day by picking strawberries fresh off the vine at these farms! Strawberry season typically runs until early June. Besides strawberries, these farms may also offer activities, such as tractor rides, jumping pillows, animals and more.

Call or check websites for hours and availability of strawberries. Some farms may not be offering u-pick strawberries, and admission and farm activities may cost extra.
