After being cooped up inside for most of the winter, once the spring season comes around here in Buffalo we're pretty excited to get outdoors and enjoy the sunshine. Thankfully all throughout and around the Queen City, you can find incredible reasons to get outside and explore all of Erie County. Taking you out to a charming small town farm, see why your whole family will love spending the day picking for berries this year.

Right off of Route 78, Thorpes Organic Family Farm has been providing Western New York with delicious fruits and vegetables for ages.

Throughout the year, you can find the farm's store open Monday through Saturday and stocked full of goods.

Around the springtime, you'll begin to notice that the store quickly starts to fill up with baskets full of strawberries.

Some decide to stop by the Thorpes Organic Family Farm to grab a basket of strawberries to turn into jam or to take home and cover in chocolate...

...but others will decide to make use of the large field of strawberries that's right next to the farm's store.

That's right! Beginning in the spring, you'll start to see Buffalonians and Western New Yorkers start to swarm to the large field to search for strawberries.

The large field is unattended, which means that visitors of the farm can pick the berries wherever they want to in the field.

When you're done filling up your baskets and have had enough fun in the sun, all you have to do is head inside to the store.
