The vendor application is available on our website for those of you interested in becoming a vendor.


Strawberry Daze

The end of April and hopefully a little earlier our strawberries will be ready for picking. We planted 13,500 little plants in October so there will be plenty for everyone to pick. It is a great experience for children as well. We will be celebrating Strawberry Daze from the end of April through first part of May with cooking and jam making demonstrations and other events on weekends. There will be a special children’s day on May 2nd with different activities for them to do. Come and enjoy picking fresh ripe strawberries for the family and also enjoy a strawberry dessert in the Café. We will have different strawberry dishes featured in the Café during this time. We will post the dates strawberries will be available to pick on the website as soon as we know they are ready.
