Note about strawberries in
Florida:
There are a few strawberry u-pick farms in Florida open
during the entire season, which lasts from December through April). Most
commercial farms do not open their fields to the general public until the end of
the season, which is usually in April (depending on the weather).
NOTE: The exit numbers on the
Interstates have changed, but we have no way of knowing what the new correct
exit numbers are until the farmers correct their listings; so be sure to ask
when you call the farms!

A visitor writes on April 04, 2009: "Went on my birthday 4/4/09. Very
friendly people. You stop at the stand and pick up quart containers which
you later return when you pay on your way out. You'll need to bring your own
bags to take them home. The rows are nicely spaced apart and this late in
the season, we picked over 20 quarts at 2 quarts for a dollar. Very nice
berries. They also had sweet Florida onions for sale at the stand. Will
definitely return!"

Comments from a visitor, April 14, 2008: "After calling
Favorite Farms several times, and assuring ourselves that they would be open
on Sunday, 4/13/08, we took the nearly hour-long trip to get some berries.
The phone message stated that they're open through 4/20/08. When we got
there, the farm was closed. With several other cars there at the same time,
we collectively decided to pick berries and leave money in the shack by the
entrance to cover our berries. Within a few minutes, a woman in a small suv
came by and told us that they're closed. She's apparently the owner. She was
telling us that this was her first day off since January, she needed the day
off and she wasn't opening. She told us that the honor system is not
acceptable and didn't seem to care that we had driven an hour for the
berries nor that they phone message stated that they were open. We did call
before we went and I called several times while we were standing there. The
phone message still stated that they were open through April 20, 2008. Just
thought you would like the feedback on this farm."
A visitor offers this advice, March 31, 2008: "Cost
for strawberries are 2 quarts/$1 (in 2008). Excellent berries this year! (2008)"

did they tell us to call back later that week to double check. ASSURED us
they'd be open daily 8 to 8. Then when we arrived Friday, after an hour
drive, they were closed. We called, and they said they weren't opening that
day - not enough fruit - would open the next day at 8 am (it was 5 pm).
Didn't care that we had been told by them that they'd be open or that we'd
driven an hour to get there. We were supposed to drive an hour home and then
come back 14 hours later. Went to another farm this year."
