Title: River Berry Farm is open for Pick-Your-Own Strawberries
Post by: Henry on June 10, 2012, 08:40:51 AM

Hi,


River Berry Farm is open for Pick-Your-Own Strawberries, everyday from 8 a.m. - 6 p.m.  The season is generally about three weeks long, so we should be picking until about the end of June.  I know...it's early.  That also means we will likely be done picking before the 4th of July!  Yaw!! 


Check our web-site, riverberryfarm.com (http://riverberryfarm.com) for updates on the berries and what's available at the farm stand.


Here's the details on the berries:  they are organic and are $2.95/lb. for pick-your-own, $6.00/quart for pre-picked which is generally about 1-1/2 lbs,  Please order at least one day ahead if you are wanting 6 or more quarts.   If you order 8 quarts, you get one of those free - $42/8 quart flat.  Freeze for the winter!!


Pick-Your-Own Peas will be ripening shortly, again, check our web-site for updates.


There are still some great flower, vegetable and herbs starts in the greenhouses.  In the farm stand we have:  lettuce, spinach, cucumbers, basil, and eggs.  We should be starting in on tomatoes, zucchini and summer squash by next weekend.


Thanks for all your support and for buying locally. 
It DOES make a difference,


Jane and the rest of us here at

Just got back from picking strawberries at River Berry Farm --- LOVELY berries!  I was able to pick 10lbs in roughly 1 hour and ... I was taking my time!  They are sooo much tastier than the berries you can buy at the grocery, well worth the price.  Thank you River Berry Farm!!!
