The Carlsbad Strawberry Company
is a family run grower of fruits and vegetables.
Now in its third generation, they have been farming
in this area since 1948. The strawberry field has been
part of the Carlsbad landscape long before Interstate
5 was built. Ask about a school field trip.
The strawberry field is located at
the corner of Cannon Road and Paseo del Norte, just
east of Interstate 5 at the Cannon Road exit in Carlsbad.
They are just right around the corner from the Carlsbad
Flower Fields, the Carlsbad Company Stores and Legoland
California. The strawberry harvest usually takes place
between January and July.
Strawberry picking is bucket size. $8.50
for a small bucket or $17 for a large bucket (3 small
buckets equal one large bucket). The strawberries are
big, red and delicious and even though the fields can
be full of pickers, there are plenty of strawberries
to choose from.
U-Pick strawberries are a fun outdoor activity for children
and adults, plus you are rewarded with a bucket of sweet
berry's.
Keep in mind that this is a cash only adventure no credit
cards accepted. If your not ready to pick you own strawberries
they is a produce stand with baskets of strawberries
for sale. Remember that you can not over fill you bucket
or you will be charged extra, only fill your bucket
to the top rim and do not let any hang over.
