Sold out – Sat, May 18

Sold out for Saturday. Try again Monday, starting at 8am.

Berries Today! More strawberries are available than other days, because we finally had some sun. Early season price is $6 per quart. Pick-your-own (PYO) patch will start sometime after Memorial Day… date to be announced.

Cool weather this week has slowed our crop down a bit and strong demand for early strawberries means we are already sold out for tomorrows berries. We will be open with more berries on Saturday.

Sold out for Tues, May 14

We are ready for the rain to stop. Strawberries love sun and so do we. On Tuesday, we will have strawberries @ $6/qt in the cooler, rain or shine, while supplies last. More berries on Thursday & Saturday.

Strawberries!!

We have strawberries today (Saturday, May 11). First come, first serve on the first bounty of the season. Today the price is $6 per quart of big beautiful strawberries. We are at 280 Lenover Rd, Atglen, one mile from the Octorara schools. We don’t have all our signs up, at this point, but GPS us and stop in. (We will re-post when they are sold out.)

We have Berries -Email us!

Strawberries are slowly starting. I enjoyed some fresh strawberries on my cereal this morning from our earliest patch. We will be getting a few quarts a day. If you are a local strawberry connoisseur and are craving strawberries, email jeffandrhonda@frontier.com and we will contact you as we have availability. Price for our early season berries will be $6/box.

Strawberries Coming Soon

The 2019 Strawberry Season is coming soon. We have had a few ripe berries, but not enough to fill a box… not yet, but SOON. We need several sunny, warm days to make them “pop.” We will possibly have a few quarts to sell (via pre-orders on Facebook) during the week of May 13-17, but the earliest day for the stand to open is Saturday, May 18. Stay tuned for more details.
