Bures Berry Patch

“Farmers Ed and Kathy Bures established Bures Berry Patch in 2001 to provide you with locally grown, fresh, high-quality fruits and vegetables in a family farm environment. Strawberry season begins around the second week in June and last two to three weeks. It is so sad that this season comes and goes so quickly, so be sure not to miss this fantastic opportunity to pick your own strawberries right out of the patch.”

The Bure Berry Patch website offers some fascinating berry information- here is a snippet.

“Strawberries are recognized as having more vitamin C than some citrus fruits; just one serving contains 140% of the recommended daily dose for children. They are also high in fiber, folate, potassium, and antioxidants, making them a natural means of reducing the chances of heart disease, high blood pressure, and certain cancers. Furthermore, eating three or more servings of fruit such as strawberries may lower your risk of developing age-related macular degeneration. ”
