Our Pick Your Own Strawberry Varieties

Galletta – Our earliest ripening variety, Galletta kicks off strawberry season with medium-to-large, glossy red berries. They’re firm, juicy, and packed with classic strawberry sweetness, with just a hint of tartness for a well-balanced bite. A great choice for those who want the first taste of summer.
Flavorfest – A mid-season favorite, Flavorfest produces large, vibrant red berries bursting with juicy sweetness. They have a bright, refreshing flavor with a rich strawberry aroma that makes them irresistible. These plump strawberries are easy to pick and full of classic strawberry flavor. With high yields, there’s plenty for everyone to enjoy.
Cabot – Known for its giant berries, Cabot ripens mid-to-late season and offers a rich, sweet taste. The flavor is smooth and mellow, with a deep, almost candy-like sweetness that makes them a standout. The firm, dense texture makes it a great choice for fresh eating or desserts. If you're looking for big, impressive strawberries, Cabot is the one to pick.
AC Valley Sunset – The perfect way to end strawberry season, this late-ripening variety offers large, sweet, and juicy berries. Their flavor is exceptionally sweet with a subtle honey-like finish, making them some of the best for fresh eating. Their soft texture makes them best enjoyed fresh, right from the field. A great choice for those who want to savor strawberries as long as possible

Picking Tips:

Pick berries that are entirely red (no white tips)

Be sure to look under the leaves of the plants, the strawberries like to hide under the leaves

Bring a hat, sunscreen and a water bottle. It gets hot out in the field!

Please walk slowly through the field to avoid damage to the plants and the berries

We can point you in the right direction for great picking, just ask!
