Strawberry Traditions
Strawberry Season has ended for 2011. Hope to see you again next year!
The Johnson family has been growing strawberries in Hobart for over 50 years. We were primarily a "Pick Your Own Farm" until the 1990s. At that time, ready picked berries became more popular as people had less time to spend picking in the field.
We currently farm over 400 acres and have 40 acres of strawberries ready to pick in 2009. The season usually starts early June and continues until the 4th of July. Join our mailing list for updates. Weather makes a big difference in the starting date and availability of berries during the season.
Call your friends and neighbors, it's time to pick strawberries! We are pleased to say that we will be opening our u-pick fields in the beginning of June, exact date dependent on weather. The hours are daily 8am - 6pm. The price for u-pick berries is $7.00 a bucket. If you pick six you only pay for five. We provide the buckets so just dress comfortably and bring a snack and something to drink and have fun!
Every year we have a Strawberry Madness festival. This year the Madness will be Saturday June 18th and Sunday June 19th. That is opening day for strawberry picking. The fields will be bursting with strawberries! Don't miss it.
