Strawberry Picture

Just some Organic Strawberry Info -

Strawberries at JenEhr Farm are grown and certified following organic (MOSA) growing standards. What that means is we grow these delicious berries without the use of any chemical fertilizers, pesticides or herbicides. That means all the weeds are hand pulled (more than 300 hours of weeding on the 1 acre field), plants are cultivated and fertilization is done in the fall with compost.

Why do we go to all this trouble? The taste is the first reason. We believe that strawberries grown without the use of petroleum-based chemicals simply taste better. We believe that it's a more sustainable farming practice, even if it leads to some stiff limbs at the end of the day. And finally, its how we want to eat and the kind of quality we want to provide for our family, friends and neighbors.
