Are you looking for a way to enjoy beautiful weather and do something for your taste buds too? Strawberries are ready for picking in Fredericksburg. After a beautiful drive through the Hill Country, a stop at Marburger Orchard for some freshly picked fruit – picked by YOU - is incredibly fun, refreshing, and tasty. Marburger has been my favorite pick-your-own (PYO) peach orchard for years, but I quickly discovered that they grow more than peaches – their fields offer watermelons, blackberries, cantaloupes, zucchini, and many other flavorful, nutrient-packed treats. Before you head out, take a look at their website, which is updated regularly to keep customers informed about the availability of fruit and vegetables throughout the season. Plan on picking strawberries until early May, then peach season will be right around the corner!
Of course there are many more orchards in Fredericksburg and surrounding towns. A more general website provides information about 22 orchards in the Fredericksburg area – including phone numbers, opening dates, ripening dates for different varieties, recipes and tips. I have visited a few of the orchards and enjoyed them all very much. As summer approaches, stands will appear on the roadsides, selling products made from local crops along with fresh produce. Watch out for the peach ice-cream; it’s addictive!
