INCLEMENT WEATHER:
IF IT IS RAINING THE DAY OF THE FIELD TRIP, MULE BARN BERRIES WILL BE CLOSED. LCA DOES NOT ISSUE REFUNDS. PLEASE REGISTER RESPONSIBLY.
Tour: 1 1/2 hour tours divided into 10 minute stations/topics . We will taste jelly and fresh or frozen berries (depending on the time of year) at the end.
Topics will vary a little with the time of year and what is going on at the farm, but basically the berries, the bees, and the bugs (good and bad) will always be topics. Pruning, picking, planting, irrigation, food safety regulations and issues, the high tunnel, and equipment are all possible topics.
Following the tour, families are welcome to stay and pick berries. Weather dependent, strawberries should be in season.
