| Strawberry Update |
 | |  | |  | |  |
| Strawberry picking is over for 2008. Thanks for all of your business -- we hope to see you again in June 2009. If you'd like to be on our mailing list, please send us your name & mailing address. We'll send you a postcard alerting you to the beginning of the 2009 strawberry season, and we promise never to share or sell your information. |
| How to prepare for picking your own strawberries at Straight River Farm: Call a day or two before your visit, and please call again the morning of your visit, as picking conditions can change quickly. Bring Mom, Dad, kids, grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends; but please don't bring pets, because as much as we love animals, they can't be allowed out of your car. Drinking water, sunscreen, mosquito repellent, hats, and kneeling pads are all accompaniments that make picking more enjoyable. We provide containers for picking into and transporting your strawberries. Our flat, waxed boxes hold 8-10 pounds of strawberries when full. Feel free to bring a picnic lunch or snack and eat it alongside the Straight River. |
