A Farewell to Strawberry Picking Season at Peterson Family Farm

NJ's Freshest Strawberries

Top Reasons Why Strawberries at the Store are not as Good as Fresh Picked

As the summer days of August roll in, we fondly look back at the end of our strawberry-picking season at Peterson Family Farm, which wrapped up at the end of June. It's been a season brimming with joyous moments, and as we reflect on the past months, we are reminded of the happiness and memories shared in our fields.

The Final Days in the New Jersey Strawberry Fields

The last days of June saw the fields still bustling with activity. Families and friends came together, baskets in hand, ready to savor the last of the season's strawberries. Though not as abundant as the season's peak, the fields offered delightful surprises for those willing to search.

Walking through the rows for the final time this season, I was struck by the sheer beauty of the farm. Finding those final, ripe strawberries felt like a treasure hunt, each berry a precious gem. Knowing that the season was coming to a close was a bittersweet moment, but the memories made were extraordinary.

Looking Forward to the Fall Season: Apple Picking in NJ

While we bid farewell to the strawberry season, we eagerly look forward to welcoming everyone back to Peterson Family Farm this fall for apple picking. Our orchards will be open, offering a new opportunity to create beautiful memories and enjoy the crisp, delicious apples straight from the tree.

In addition to apples, we are thrilled to announce that we are now growing peaches, which will be available for sale at our farm stand. These juicy, sweet peaches are a perfect treat and a great addition to our farm's offerings.

We look forward to seeing you all again in the fall. Come back to enjoy apple picking and take home some freshly harvested peaches. Thank you for making this strawberry season at Peterson Family Farm unforgettable, and we can't wait to share the joys of the upcoming seasons with you.

Until then, we wish everyone an excellent rest of the summer. Stay tuned for more updates and events on our website, and we hope to see you soon at the farm!
