A visitor writes on June 07, 2011: "We visited this farm on Sunday, June 5, 2011 and had a great time. The woman at the farmstand on 25A was very friendly, told us to drive through the field to get to the pick-your-own section. The other lady took the time to show my 6-yr-old how to pick and told her to eat as many berries as she wanted, LOL. Only a few rows were ready to pick this early in the season, but there were plenty, and they are delicious. We recommend this farm! Note that street address listed is their house address. Farm stand and PYO is on 25A across from CVS."
