Butternut Farm

Our strawberry season runs from mid June to early July--depending on the weather. Picking hours are 7-12 Tues-Sun but call 335-4705, BEFORE coming, for picking conditions as they do vary.

The renewing of our strawberry beds has been one of our main focuses the last three years. You will be pleasantly surprised to see the extended variety, availability and quality of the fruit this year.
