U-Pick Strawberries & Blackberries
We are excited to announce that strawberry season will open with the return of the Tenth Street Orchard Vintage Market! Everyone had such a wonderful time last year that we decided to have another one. The vintage market will be May 19th from 9 – 4. Stay tuned for more details about your favorite vintage & food vendors, great bands, and of course the strawberries! If you are interested in being a vendor, fill out an application here.

The last day for strawberries this year will be Monday, June 12th. Come and help us clean out the patch this Saturday from 8-12 or Monday 6-8 PM.
We have some great berries, but we won’t have them for too much longer! This week we will be open on Monday 6-8 PM and Saturday 8-12 for picking. Just give us a call to schedule an appointment if you want to come and pick any other time this week (620-381-6702). Hope that you can come out and get some strawberries this year!
We opened on Saturday and had a wonderful opening day! We will be open on Monday 6 PM – 8 PM, Wednesday 6 PM – 8 PM, and Saturday from 8 AM- noon through mid-June. Pick-your-own strawberries are $2.50/lb + tax. Bring your own container, or we have some of our picking baskets available for $2. Hope that you can come out to the farm and pick some delicious berries!
The berries are starting to really come on nicely, and we are looking forward to opening strawberry picking season on May 20th at the vintage market!
Pick-your-own strawberries will be just $2.50/lb. We have some nice picking baskets that you can use and take home for $2, otherwise just bring a separate container to take your berries home in. We will also have a limited number of pre-picked berries for sale at $4.00/lb.
We have an amazing set of vendors coming to the vintage market! We are now completely full and are so excited at the quality and variety of vendors that will be coming, this is going to be a big event! There will be live music throughout the day, along with food from Pop’s Kettle Corn, Snowie Bus, Fruit Ninja, and BB8 BBQ (serving up the best BBQ on this side of the galaxy).

Celebrating National Strawberry Day by uncovering the first berries of the season! We covered them up last fall with a row cover and straw to protect them from the winter cold.
We typically wait a little longer to remove the row covers and straw, but given that it is #NationalStrawberryDay we thought it would be fitting to start today. We’ll keep slowly removing the straw from the rows over the next few weeks as spring arrives.
It’s always so exciting to look underneath the straw for the first time in the spring, from what we saw today it looks like the row covers and straw protected them well through the winter! The berries look good at this stage and we’re excited to see them continue to grow through the spring.
We are excited to announce that we will host a vintage market on May 20th at Tenth Street Orchard! This juried show will feature a selection of top vendors with a wide variety of vintage, antique, home decor, jewelry and handcrafted items for sale. The orchard will also have ripe strawberries for picking, live music, entertainment, and food vendors. Plan on bringing the family out to search for treasures and enjoy a day of junking & strawberries!
We will post updates and feature vendors on our Facebook page. Vendor spaces are filling up fast and we are excited about the quality and selection that we will be able to offer at the show! If you are interested in becoming a vendor, fill out the application page and we will contact you directly.
We are looking forward to bringing fresh strawberries & blackberries to central Kansas this summer! We planted 2,000 strawberry and 25 bare-root blackberry plants in spring 2016 and have worked hard to nurture them through the first growing season. This spring we hope to see the fruits of our labors and plan to open the berry patch this May for pick-your-own strawberries and blackberries.
We are thankful for this opportunity to produce fresh, local, and delicious berries.
