Can you believe that spring is just around the corner? We couldn’t be more excited to kick off another U-Pick Strawberry Season here at Southern Belle Farm! Last fall, we planted over 200,000 strawberry plants. They aren’t ready to be picked yet, but it won’t be long! Spring on the Farm begins on April 1st. That is when we’ll reopen our Outdoor Activities and Country Market. Strawberries will most likely be ripe enough to pick in early April. We can’t wait to get back to helping you grow family traditions! Keep reading to learn more about what’s in store very soon.
