Berry Hill Farm Anoka

Summer

Here at the Berry Hill Farm we have strawberries, raspberries, and rhubarb during the summer season. Tentative schedule for strawberries is from approximately the end of June to mid-July. Raspberries are typically in season from the beginning of July until the end of July. Rhubarb is ready to be picked around mid-May, but we will also pick through the strawberry season.  Please remember that these dates are approximate. For up to date information sign up for the Berry Bulletin or check back as the season approaches.
We have two phone numbers. For pre-pick orders or specific questions, call Amy at 763-753-5891. For general strawberry updates and hours, call 763-753-6266.

Strawberries Prices for 2012:
$1.90 per Pound if U-Pick
$21 for a Pre-Picked 6 Pound Box (about 4 Quarts)
If you are interested in pre-picked berries, you must call and place an order the day before or morning of the pick-up date with Amy at 763-753-5891. We do not accept e-mail orders for pre-picked berries.

We accept cash and checks only. No cards please.
