(Please note that the date of this event has been changed to June 21 (from June 14) to allow the berries to fully ripen).
Dig in the dirt with our farm staff, meet some berry-loving animals, and pick your own strawberries to take home.
Our strawberries, like all of our produce, are grown without the use of chemical fertilizers, pesticides, or herbicides.
We think our strawberries are some of the best there are, and we’re sure you will too!
Pick-your-own strawberries will be available for purchase from 10:00 am to 2:00 pm, weather permitting and while supplies last, one quart per picking-person limit.
All activities except strawberry picking are free with admission ($8 for adults, $6 for seniors and children (2-12), free for Mass Audubon members).
