Strawberry Report July 7th, 2009
After looking through the fields we are still finding strawberries that will be ripening the over the weekend. With cool weather and the rain, the berries are slowly turning from green to red. So far we have had just the right number of people show up to pick. Everyone was able to find enough; most people pick about 4 quarts. Some of the "picking teams" that came picked 12 quarts. Here comes the rain.... I hope that global warming will cause some warming in Vermont soon!

Late season strawberries pull through at Littlewood Farm
Our fields our busy today with pickers, the sun is out and it is starting to feel like it is really summer. Some of our pickers are having a hard time finding ripe berries but they say there are many green berries "ripening while they pick". Pending sunshine we will have a lot more berries later in the week.
Picking is open 8am-noon everyday
