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.
