Upinngil Strawberry Pick-Your-Own
Open for one day only!
Sunday June 28th, 2026. 8am-Noon
We had a good season! We only had a small field this year so we were not able to open for PYO until now. Berries are small but abundant. Wendy variety is particularly sweet. Dickens are more numerous but dry field conditions followed by torrential rains last Monday damaged fruit appearance significantly. Honeoyes are as delicious and reliable as ever – we’ve taken hundreds of pounds out of those beds and they just keep giving.
PYO $3.50/lb. Containers provided or bring your own. Field is located 1/2 mile south of farm store on Main Road.
Hope you can join us!
Sorrel & The Upinngil Team
June is strawberry season at Upinngil. We’ve been growing strawberries for over 20 years. Every year we grow 1-2 acres for pick-your-own and farm stand sales. Strawberries are Upinngil’s single biggest crop, and it all gets harvested in 3 short crazy weeks. Our crew picks every morning rain or shine and the first flats come out of the field and onto the farm stand by 9AM. If and when berries are abundant enough PYO is open 8am-Noon. Updates will be posted regularly on our homepage during the season.
Growing Practices
Our berries are sustainably managed in perennial beds. They are IPM and low spray. We never “beauty spray” the fruit. They are perfectly safe to eat out of hand or in the field without washing. We use herbicides when we plant a new field, to help the plants get established in preparation for fruiting the following spring, and after the fruiting season in July when we renovate the beds. We monitor for tarnished plant bug and boytritis in May when the plants are blooming and may choose to spray if pest pressure is high.
