Strawberry Picking

Sweet Sensations of Summer

  • Estimated Annual Start –  Mid June

  • For detailed dates and times see “latest news” on our Home Page

Strawberry Season is estimated to start mid-June and runs for about 3 weeks.

Basse’s Taste of Country happily invites you and your family to join us for u-pick strawberries! Estimated to start in mid-June and ends around 4th of July. We begin our season with u-pick strawberries. Nothing marks the real beginning of summer like big, red, luscious, and sweet strawberries! Come enjoy a wagon ride with your family to pick your own fresh strawberries this summer!

155,000 strawberry plants burst every season and in 2024 Basse’s will plant 40,000 new strawberry plants for production in 2025. Stop in to pick your own delicious fresh strawberries right from the fields. Visit our country store for all pre-picked strawberries and peas. Don’t forget our homemade strawberry donuts, pies, breads and our yummy strawberry sundaes while supplies last.
