We will be opening up our strawberry field for u-pick starting this Tuesday, May 3 and continuing each Tuesday and Friday from 1 to 6pm and Saturdays from 10am to 3pm.  Bring the family out for a fun time picking our delicious strawberries.  Bring your own containers or use our baskets to pick into.  The price will be $2 / pound, which works out to be about $2 per one pint basket ( our regular price when purchased already picked at the stand is $3 / basket).  We will continue to have plenty of picked berries available on  the stand table, along with all our other veggies and fruits.

The ciders and juices from Chadmark Farms are again available on our stand table.  We have the apple cider, apple-pomegranate cider blend, and the apple-boysenberry cider blend …in 1/2 gallons bottles and pint bottles and the pure pomegranate juice in pint bottles.  Great pride is taken by the farmer to bring you  his high quality ciders and juices using the “flash pasteurized” method.

Do you ever find yourself wanting to buy our strawberries…but then coming by the farm only to realize that the stand wasn’t open that day?  We will now have a “self service” strawberry table set up at our stand every Monday, Wednesday and Thursday…open  from 10am to 5pm.  Keep in mind that only strawberries will be offered for sale on those “self service” days…to purchase all of our other veggies and fruits, you will still have to come by during our regular stand hours of Tuesday and Fridays, 1 to 6pm and Saturdays, 10 to 3pm.  For the “self service” honor system to work, you must bring the exact amount of your intended purchase or use a check…as there will not be anybody around to help you or make change.  The strawberries will be priced at $3 / basket or $9 / 3 pack.  Please put your payment in the small red “money box” that will be sitting next to the berry display.

I hope everyone is enjoying the spring and thanks for supporting our farm.
