Stawberry Season is Right Around the Corner

Strawberry season is one of the first signs that late spring has fully arrived in Flemington. At Peterson Family Farm, picking usually begins when our early varieties are ready in late May, then builds into the stronger June window as more berries ripen across the field. Start planning your visit now, check our strawberry page for current picking information, and use our timing guide to understand the best weeks for strawberry picking in New Jersey.

The Peterson Farm

The Peterson Farm is located in the heart of Hunterdon County.  The farm was purchased in 1955 by John and Esther Peterson.  The barn to the right dates back to 1800's.  It is one of the only barns in the area with an original cupola.  John Jr. and his son Matt restored the cupola in the 1980's.

Today, the Petersons grow a variety of crops including alfalfa, orchard grass, oats, wheat, soybeans, Christmas trees, strawberries, sweet corn, apples, peaches and pumpkins and raise our own beef.

We believe in providing produce which is "naturally grown," meaning limited use of sprays and pesticides.  It is important to us to protect our own family, customers and honey bees from harmful pesticides.

The farm crops are planted and maintained by John Peterson Jr., his son Matt and grandson Jake along with their families.  Together we make it all happen!
