Strawberry Picking

Strawberry Season has finished for 2023.  We anticipate having berries again in April 2024. Thanks

Looking for the authentic strawberry picking experience? Bring the whole family out to Carrigan Farms for pick-your-own strawberries. While no reservations are needed, weekends are usually very busy so if you have the flexibility to come on a weekday, please do.

Cost of U-pick strawberries are $20 per four-quart container and $7 per quart-sized container; we provide clean containers. Pre-picked strawberries, when available, are $22 per four-quart container and $7 per quart-sized container. For payment, please bring cash because we don’t take credit or debit cards. Please arrive 30 minutes prior to closing time if you wish to pick strawberries.

Curious about strawberries at the farm? Here are some short videos explaining various parts of the growing process:

What to Bring / What to Expect:

The strawberry field is a part of a working farm. There may be uneven ground or mud. Please wear appropriate clothes and shoes.  Also, it can be hot and sunny, and there is pollen. This is an outdoor environment so be prepared for outdoor conditions. We do not suggest bringing a stroller due to uneven ground. Pets / dogs are not permitted to visit the strawberry field.

Please note that the remainder of the farm is not open to the public at this time. Activities at the quarry are anticipated to begin mid-May. Please check the Open Swim page for more details on swimming: Open Swim

Directions / Entrance:

Enter at the Carrigan Farms Strawberry Field. The address for GPS purposes is 1145 Oak Ridge Farm Highway, Mooresville NC 28115.
