When
Event has endedWhere
Cobblestone Valley Farm
PO Box 121
Preble, NY 13068
Our strawberry plants receive adoring, individual care as they are planted into a new field every year. Each field is nourished by our own compost and maintained by the hard work of our hands & backs, and tractors. You'll taste the difference as every berry gives you an explosion of incredible, organic flavor! Per USDA organic standards, CVF strawberries are not sprayed and are not treated by anything else otherwise artificial or questionable. Our strawberries are certified organic by NOFA-NY Certified Organic, LLC.
WHEN
9-6 Monday through Friday
8-4 Saturday and Sunday; We close at 4:00 on the weekends.
July 4 picking from 8-12
Weather and berry ripening closings will be posted in the header section of this page, on Instagram & Facebook, and on the Farm answering machine: 607-591-9607. If in doubt it is always best to check first. Sometimes it is raining here, and not where you live, and vice versa. Please check so as not to be disappointed if you are driving a distance.
>WHERE
There is a newly planted field this year, located near the beginning of the farm driveway on Preble Road. Watch for the signs. If you use a GPS address of 2100 Preble Road that should get you to the signs; or, Google Cobblestone Valley Organic Strawberries.
Keep your eye out for signs on Preble Road.
PRICE
$3.95 per pound for pick-your-own berries - this translates to roughly $5 per quart.
Payment methods

New This Year - Please Read:
Bringing your own containers from home to pick into was always encouraged in years past. This year, due to Covid-19, we will need to prohibit that practice. We will provide 4-quart pails for berry customers to pick into. We know the weight of those pails, so you only need to provide us with the number of pails that you’d like at check-in. Pails will cost $2 each. If you’ve purchased pails from us in past years there is no need to purchase new ones this year - please do bring those along to use. Filled with berries, the pails come to about $20.
HOW
We are a 'drive-thru' weighing station, both on the way in to buy your containers and get instructions on where to pick, and also on the way out as we weigh the berries and complete the sale. There will be signs directing you. So, no need to park first before getting your buckets
