Country Road Strawberries |
OUR 2011 SEASON HAS
COME TO AN END
Our last day was Tuesday June 7, 2011. Thank you for your business!
We look forward to seeing you again in 2012. Please make sure we have your
e-mail address (see below)
Country Road Strawberries opened May 4th for our 2011
season, and U-Pick opened May 9th, and closed June 7th. We frequently
sold out of each days supply of berries,
and we truly hate to turn away those who just dropped by hoping for a gallon
or two. That is why we encourage everyone to call ahead to reserve your order, and to confirm that we are
open and have berries available. Thanks to our loyal customers who return year after
year and to those new customers who recently discovered us.
Do we have your e-mail address? If you have not
already done so, please let us know your e-mail address, so we may
notify you of our season opening. And be assured, we do not
sell, trade or barter the information you provide. See below for
E-mail contact information.
NOTE: Since we spend so much time in the fields, we do not check
e-mails on a daily basis Therefore, we can not accept orders by
e-mail.

About Us and Our Strawberries |
Country Road Strawberries is a
family owned and operated small business proud of our efforts to
grow and sell the finest strawberries in the Yadkin Valley.
Located on more than seven beautiful acres near the base of Pilot Mountain
(one of the Piedmont's most notable landmarks), our clean berries
are grown on plastic ground cover. This keeps the berries
clean and dry and much less prone to rot encountered at other
strawberry farms that do not protect their berries from ground
contact. It also makes the berries easier to pick. All our We-Pick berries are fresh the day you get
them, not picked a day or two earlier and refrigerated like some other growers. This ensures
that your Country Road Strawberries are the freshest and sweetest berries possible. |

Unique Features |
Country Road Strawberries is a
family owned and operated farm located
near the northeast end of the Yadkin Valley, within North Carolina's
first designated viticulture (wine growing) area. We are just one
mile south of Pilot Mountain knob, one of North Carolina's most
recognized natural landmarks. During the strawberry season, customers are invited to
call ahead to ensure we are open, then come for the
afternoon, pick your own berries or select from our
fresh-picked strawberries (price per gallon is determined just
before each season opening). So bring a picnic
lunch, enjoy a lovely
afternoon in some of the prettiest country in the state, and take
home some fresh Country Road Strawberries. |
