About Starberry Farm - “Bob and Sally operated the Just-a-Mere Fruit Farm on Kinney Hill the last season it was open, 1977, and at tempted to buy the property. When they were not successful, neighbor Teed Averill told us to go ahead and order the peach trees for the 1978 season and he’d find a place to put them. He did, the 15 acres where Starberry is now located, a former pasture/hayfield. One to two hundred trees have been planted each year since, including a few apples, apricots, sweet and sour cherries, pears, plums and nectarines as well as about 1500 peaches.

Key Insights:
- Delicious peaches and apricots- first in the season and many more to come, lovely and friendly owners plus two beautiful Scotish collies make the trip more than worthwhile!
- A little reminder, punch in 81 Kielwasser Rd in your GPS instead of 47 if you haven't been there and are planning to go- will save you some frustration while climbing up the hill and looking for the farm/farm stand at the same time..
- / peach.... they took a week to ripen and were dry and tough...not good...gonna skip it next year.
- This is a wonderful local fruit and berry farm in a gorgeous "off the beaten path" location.
- It is not huge and commercialized, for a quiet and enjoyable day of picking your own or buying at the barn.
