What to Know Before You Go

• Check strawberry farm websites/social media (most use Facebook) BEFORE heading out for strawberry picking. Farms often post when they are sold out or closed due to weather conditions, poor crops, etc. Also check the preferred form of payment at each farm.
• Confirm via phone or website/social media that children are allowed to pick.
• Pets are not allowed at most strawberry farms.
• Strawberry fields can get boggy, especially after a light rain. Wear closed-toed shoes and be prepared to get muddy.
