What to Bring / What to Expect:
The strawberry field is a part of a working farm. There may be uneven ground or mud. Please wear appropriate clothes and shoes. Also, it can be hot and sunny, and there is pollen. This is an outdoor environment so be prepared for outdoor conditions. We do not suggest bringing a stroller due to uneven ground. Pets / dogs are not permitted to visit the strawberry field.
Please note that the remainder of the farm is not open to the public at this time. Activities at the quarry are anticipated to begin mid-May. Please check the Open Swim page for more details on swimming: Open Swim
