Head to Batey Farms in Murfreesboro this spring for fresh-from-the-patch strawberries.

The farm, which also sells farm-fresh sausage and other pork products, opens its strawberry patch to the public for picking each spring. Guests can grab a busket (combination bucket and basket) and pick as many berries as they wish. All berries are sold by the pound, with U-pick berries ringing in at $3.75 per pound and prepicked berries at $4.50 per pound.

After you’ve gathered your berries, relax under one of the farm’s shade trees. You can even bring a blanket and picnic lunch to enjoy.

Batey’s 2022 U-pick strawberry season is expected to start around May 1. For more information, call (615) 848-4178 or visit bateyfarms.com/strawberries.
