Strawberry picking date- date & location change!!

UPDATE:  5/23-- and this patch is closed as well for now:(

 

Roca Berry Farm-- our May 30th meet-up has been cancelled. Their strawberry crop has been ruined because of the cold nights...first time in 31 years! 

Martin's Hillside Orchard (right outside of Ceresco, Nebraska-- North of Lincoln) has already opened for the season.  

Their picking season is limited to only a few weeks...so if anyone would like to join us to pick strawberries there-- we will be picking on Wednesday, 5/23 at 10:30am.  We will be packing a lunch also.  

It is supposed to be hot outside...so bring plenty of water, sunscreen, hats, and a container to hold your strawberries in.  Containers are also available to purchase.  Your kids will get messy (if they are like mine, so dress them in play clothes).

Link to their orchard and directions:  HERE! 

Please note-- the patch sometimes closes at the last minute as they wait for more strawberries to ripen...I will post any changes to the blog...so check here before you leave.  I will call them in the morning before I head out. 

THEY DO NOT ACCEPT CREDIT CARDS.  SO BRING CASH OR CHECK.  

This is a small family run farm.  

E-mail me if you are coming so I can look for you in the fields!
