Strawberry picking is a wonderful activity for the whole family, and it is also very rewarding! Country Blossom Farm keeps it easy for your family to enjoy.
Upon arrival, you will be given a crate for picking and directed to your very own strawberry row, where you can spend time picking at your own pace. As you stroll through the strawberry patch, the scent of ripe strawberries fills the air, enticing you to pick a few (or a dozen) for a sweet and juicy snack!
Be sure to pack sunscreen and extra water as it can get hot. You will also need to walk a short distance to the patch and be walking up and down the rows, so good walking shoes are a must.
Allow Time for Picking
It can take ten to fifteen minutes to find and pick a quart of ripe strawberries. That means it can take up to an hour to pick a full gallon of strawberries. Depending on how many you want to pick, plan for at least an hour (maybe two) for your adventure.
Also, it is best to get there as soon as possible. At the peak of picking season, it is very busy and later in the day it can get busy as well. Plan to either go in the morning or early evening, depending on the day and hours you go.
