Strawberries


The first picking for u-pick strawberries starts at 7 AM Saturday June 21. There is a lot of red berries in the field today (wednesday) already so the picking should be real good by Saturday. We also are starting now to pick for the stand. The peak season will be next week and the following week.

The fields are located behind our stand at 11 Needham Road, Potsdam.

Our picking hours are 7-11 am and 2-6 pm or until the field is picked. We start back over the field every Monday at 7 am, Wednesday at 2pm (no morning picking Wednesday)and Saturday at 7 am. We are open on the inbetween days if we have not finished the patch the day before. These picking days repeat every week.
U-pick price is $1.30 per lb. Please bring your own containers. We weigh your containers when you come and then again after you are finished.
We also have picked berries on the stand as the supply lasts for $3.75 a quart. If you take 10 or more they are $3.00 a quart on days that strawberries are abundant.
I also offer share picking, you take one home for each two you pick for us. Daniel
