    Cool thanks. I'm gonna see if there are any around here.

    I've not been to one since I moved here and hadn't been to one where I use to live for maybe 10 years.

    There's one near me. Here's what it says.

    Tanaka Farms - Strawberries, pumpkins and other vegetables and fruits. Corn maze. Guided wagon ride around the farm
    We are open Mid-March through October 31st., Mon thru Friday 9am to 5:30pm, Saturday & Sunday 9am to 5pm. Open again Thanksgiving Weekend for Christmas Trees. The produce stand is open all year around seven days a week 9 am to 5 pm. 2006 strawberry prices: $12 per person per basket and free for 2 and under (but they don't get a basket)
    DS just loves strawberries! That would be really fun for me and him to pick a basket for $12. I could buy them cheaper but I think he would really enjoy picking.

    Thank you so much for this.
    There is an International link on the site which I am very pleased with.
    Unfortunately there isn't as yet a Dutch link so I have added this website to my favorites and I'll be keeping an eye on it.
    Thanks again!

    I accidentally found that site a few years ago when I was looking to pick blueberries. It has definitely become one of my favorite places to visit when it comes time for picking berries.
