STRAWABERRY UPDATE May 8th: We are in PEAK early season for picking! All that heat last week has really brought the STRAWBERRIES into season. NOW is a GREAT time to pick or to buy pre-picked STRAWBERRIES!
Picking conditions are GREAT! Still wear old shoes or boots as it is a little wet from the rain Monday evening. Thursday is rain off and on so TODAY is your DAY to pick.
No time to pick? We have PLENTY of pre-picked STRAWBERRIES available as well. By the pint: $5/pint or $35 for a flat of 8 pints. By the Quart: $10/quart or $55 for a flat of 6 quarts. Wanting to make JAM or FREEZE Strawberries? We have Flats (16 pints or about 11 lbs) of slightly less than perfect Strawberries available at $35 flat (originally $50).
Help us move these STRAWBERRIES.
Keep reading so you have the whole scoop:
Pick your own: $4.99/lb. Get your containers to pick in at the Market. Buskets and flats are available. A busket holds about 5 lbs or so. A flat will hold between 10 and 14 lbs depending on how high you pile it up. The STRAWBERRY patch is located across the road from the Market, just past the big water tanks. The beginning of each row is a little muddy, but once you get in the row it isn’t muddy. Check out at the Market when you are done picking. Patch closes 15 minutes before the Market closes.
PRE-PICKED: $5/pint or 8 pints for $35. $10/quart or 6 quarts for $55.
Pre-picked Strawberries that are slightly less than perfect, but are PERFECT for Jam, Freezing, Smoothies or eating Fresh. Normally 16 pints would cost you $70. These flats are $35 while supplies last.
Mushrooms fresh from Northside Growers.
Tatsoi, Kale, Collards, Pac Choi, available in the Fridges.
Miller Farms EGGS on SALE: Normally $7/dozen. Right now By a dozen, get a dozen half off. Our flock of Pastured laying hens are laying well. Our pastured hens are moved every day to fresh grass. They have a floorless hoop house so they always have access for fresh air, fresh grass, sunshine and bugs.
Miller Farms BEEF: Grass Fed, Grass Finished Beef from our Herd of Angus Cattle. Raised and Grazed on our Farm. Where does your BEEF come from? Buy Fresh and Buy Local. Taste the difference! PLENTY of Ground Beef, Burgers, Steaks, Thinly Sliced Steaks, Roasts, Stew Meat, and Organ meat.

What are thinly sliced Steaks? Think steak sandwiches with peppers and onions. Sliced thinner than bacon. Throw in a frying pan and cook til a light pink cover with fried onions and peppers. Bingo….. a perfect sandwich.
