Our favorite time of year in SoCal is finally here — strawberry season! As much as we love eating those perfectly juicy berries, we also love picking them. If you’re seeking a fun-filled activity the whole family will love then we think you’ll enjoy a day trip to this splendid strawberry farm where you can pick the freshest red berries in town. Here’s a look.
It's strawberry season!! Are you as excited as we are?!
One of our favorite places to pick berries is Carlsbad Strawberry Company. For over 50 years, this family-owned farm has been delighting customers with plump and juicy strawberries all season long.
U-pick hours are limited so make sure to show up early for the best picking opportunities. The farm is open at 9 a.m. seven days per week. It's advised to arrive before 3 p.m. if you'd like to pick your own strawberries.
If you've never picked strawberries before, you're in good hands at Carlsbad Strawberry Company as they have plenty of how-to signs posted throughout the farm.
Be aware that the heat can be intense out there, especially as we get closer to the summer. Make sure to wear sunscreen and protective clothing so you don't walk away with a sunburn.
If you want to enjoy the plump and juicy strawberries from Carlsbad Strawberry Farm but don't have time to pick your own, you'll also find their fresh berries at local fruit stands and farmers markets throughout the county.
If you are able to head out to the farm for a day of picking, we know you'll have a great time. Especially once you see the amazing berries you'll find on the farm.
