Hello and welcome to Middle River Farms! We are located in the heart of the scenic Shenandoah Valley, between Weyers Cave and Grottoes, just five minutes from Interstate 81. We look forward to you stopping by.

What We Do

The goal of our family is to produce high quality locally grown strawberries for you and your family. We concentrate our efforts toward the “pick your own” market, but with a day or two of advance notice we can provide pre-picked strawberries for those customers who prefer not to “pick their own”. We strive to present a fun and family oriented farm experience. We welcome strawberry pickers of all ages.

In addition to strawberries, we also grow pumpkins, indian corn, corn shocks, straw bales etc. for all your fall decorating needs. Thanks to all those who came and picked pumpkins last year making our pumpkin patch a smashing success.

We also will set up a fall display at your place of business or residence! Please contact us for further information about this service.

2012 Strawberry Season Information

*** Season update*** (May 25, 2012)

We have been very lucky this week and missed all of the rain that other areas have received. As such, field and strawberry conditions remain great. Berry size is a little smaller than in weeks past, however we still have plenty of ripe red strawberries for the picking. We expect the season to continue though next week. We will be closed for a day of ripening on Tuesday May 29 and will resume normal hours on Wednesday May 30. Hope to see you soon! 

Prices: U-Pick $1.79 per pound / Pre-Picked $2.79 per pound. (Please call a day or two in advance to order pre-picked berries) 

Additional Items: In interest of supporting the "buy fresh buy local" concept, this year we will again have for sale during berry season locally produced items to include pastured chicken eggs, a small selection of veggies etc. If there are items you would like to see us have on hand please let us know.  

Hours of Operation:  We are open for business from 7:30 am – until picked out, Monday through Saturday during Strawberry Season. The only change to the hours of operation will be if an extra day of ripening is needed. Please feel free to contact us by phone or email about hours of operation or any other questions you may have.
