Rain or Shine!
Family Friendly!
Afternoon Strawberry Tasting at the Farmstand
2-5 pm in the Red Fire Farm Barn
Join us at the farm in Granby for a celebration of the strawberry during the peak of picking season! We grow nine varieties of strawberries, each with their own flavor.
Come in the afternoon to try a tasting of the many strawberry varieties, enjoy some live music, and pick your own organic berries (PYO is for CSA members only, but everyone is welcome for the event and dinner). Snow and snap peas should be ripe as well. Strawberry shortcake for sale in the barn! Also, quarts of our strawberries and local cream to take home!
Strawberry Feast in the Fields
Later in the afternoon, join us for a lovely meal in the strawberry fields. Mosey on over to the field starting around 5:30, dinner at about 6pm. Created by our Red Fire Chef with seasonal produce from our farm and featuring local products from other area farms!
