The birth story of Knaus Berry Farm is a charming one, and this farm is a super destination choice for all the family to enjoy a day our in the countryside picking strawberries.
“In 1956, brothers Ray and Russell Knaus began raising strawberries together in the Redland of South Florida. They set up a small roadside stand near the current Knaus Berry Farm location to sell their berries. Some of their strawberries were sold through a broker who tasted the cookies made by Ray’s wife, Barbara. He told her that they were good enough to sell. Over the years—along with the strawberries—assorted baked goods, vegetables, and ice cream have become available for sale at Knaus Berry Farm. Knaus Berry Farm also has U-Pick strawberries and tomatoes, availability permitting. It’s been said that there are only two seasons in South Florida — when the Knaus Berry Farm bakery is open and when it’s closed.”

Key Insights:
They sell lots of baked goods like cheesecakes, cookies, breads, cakes, pies, and of course cinnamon rolls.
You can buy fresh produce in season, they have strawberries, lettuce, onions and squash in Feb.
They also sell cakes, brownies, milkshakes, and slushy.. We stopped by in a Monday morning and there was no queue at all.
We didn’t eat the pie till we got to Orlando and we’re tempted to drive back it was that good.
About a month or two after they open for the season there are days where you can literally walk right up and get your hands on the yummy sticky buns people waited hours to try.
