Take The Whole Family On A Day Trip To This Pick-Your-Own Strawberry Farm In Connecticut

Does anything say "summer is here" more than biting into the juicy sweetness of a ripe strawberry? What makes those strawberries even tastier is if you picked them yourself. Sure, you can attempt to grow some fruit at home if you've got a garden. But for those of us not blessed with green thumbs, another great option is to visit a u-pick fruit farm in Connecticut. We've got plenty, and one of our favorite is Starvish Farm in East Windsor. This delightful little family-owned farm is full of a number of different strawberry varieties. The berry season in New England is quite short, and the strawberries are at their best right now!

Starvish Farms has a brand new field for 2022 in East Windsor. The farm's original field is a few miles away in Enfield, but it's currently closed for renovations.

New England's berry-picking season is quite short and only lasts through early July, so you'll want to get out to the farm as soon as possible!

This is a great experience for the whole family. Kids will delight in seeing where the food comes from, and nothing tastes better than a fresh strawberry.

U-pick strawberries are sold by the pound, but you can also purchase pre-picked quarts if you're not up for the effort involved in picking your own.

This is one of our favorite u-pick fruit farms in Connecticut.

There are several different varieties of strawberries planted here that mature at slightly different times to maximize the number available for picking.

Don't forget, the season ends soon, so get out there as soon as possible! For more information about Starvish Farm, check out the farm's Facebook.
