Strawberry Picking at Hunt's Strawberry Farm

This week we fulfilled one of Cole's life-long dreams: STRAWBERRY PICKING!!! It was so wonderful! Long, luscious rows of low-lying plants bursting with beautiful berries (just try to read that sentence out loud). The berries were so tempting that we caught ourselves trying one after another and they were PERFECT for some homemade freezer jam!

We planned to only get one bucket, but were so tantalized that we caved and got another. What can we say? We just got all jittery picking these strawberries. Get there early so that there will still be berries. The best ones were in the middle of the plants so don't be afraid to just dig in! The strawberry season is fairly short so don't miss out!

At Hunts you take a one gallon bucket that you can fill as high as you can which you will pay for at the end. Hunt's is located at 4505 Watkins Road, Raleigh, NC 27616.
