It’s strawberry season—5 farms in the Huntsville area
Strawberry season is ripe here in North Alabama, and there’s plenty of places around here to grab a bucket of them (or two, or three if you’re like me).
Whether you like to pick them yourself or skip straight to the enjoying with pre-picked strawberries, we’ve got you covered.
1. Brown Farms
Let’s start with one of the oldest, most well-known strawberry farms in the Huntsville area, Brown Farms. Growing up, this is where my family and I went for “strawberry picking day”—always a fun experience. Every April and May, this farm is bursting with strawberries and bustling with visitors coming to pick them.

2. Reeves’ Peach Farm
Don’t get thrown off by the name of this one—they have plenty of strawberries during this time of year. Right now, they’re selling pre-picked strawberries, but they’ll have the you-pick field open later in the season.

Isom’s Orchard is a year-round favorite for all kinds of fresh produce. But, this time of year, strawberries are center-stage.
