Family owed, very nice. Know your seasons for strawberries and blackberries. Sweet and ready to be picked with a day in the sunshine. You might see an emu or two. read more

Man at the stand was a bit aloof (spoke only a few words and not in the warmest way.....he did seem kinda tired) but the strawberries that I got here were so vibrant and juicy! I picked up a box of them straight from the stand counter, but at the time of this review it seems like it's also still the season for self-picking in the strawberry fields (saw a lady get a white bucket). Drive slowly when approaching the entrance because it creeps up fast from the main road (narrow one-lane gated way)! read more

Sun Strawberry - Fruits & Veggies Near Me - Elk Grove, California

4 stars Minus a star cuz I thought the price per person for U-pick was a lil much. For U-pick it's $25 a bucket plus a few dollars a head per picker. I believe you can pick both strawberries & blueberries here too. To see the size of the bucket, see my pic. It may look smallish but in retrospect, took a long time to eat those all, but took only about 30 minutes for 5 of us to fill up our fresh picked red treasures. After paying the entrance fee, you just walk like 2 minutes around the corner & pick your red, ripe, sweety, fruity gems. I suggest wearing sneakers that you don't mind getting muddy or dirty, shorts, and a hat. We went around 10am in June and we got hot, sweaty & our shoes muddy. It's a unique, healthy, different activity for kids, adults & anyone wanting to have that farm to fork experience first hand. An alternative to U-pick is you can just walk up to their make-shift fruit & veggie stand, & buy a small green container of strawberries. Green container of strawberry prices are 1 for $4, 2 for $8, 3 for $11, 3 for $14, etc (see pic). The lady strawberry picker has the best eye for sweet, ripe, amazingly tasting berries. No sugar needed! I've seen melons, local raw honey, onions, garlic, beets, cherries, peaches & tomatoes & other ground & tree grown goodies for sale here. I can't confirm nor deny if these are all locally grown on these grounds, but the guy at the stand said the tomatoes are. $4 a basket for those. They were super red and look super ripe & yummy too. Random fact: Once I came and the lady offered me free melons that were almost too ripe. Came home, cut them & ate them. So sweet! In the summer mornings around 10-11 it can get a lil busy with strawberries purveyors. Another random fact: The blue mansion in the back sometimes has yard sales at the same time the fruit stand is open. Double win for us bargain hunters. read more

The best strawberries in town! Support local farms and get your berries at this little stand.

Strawberry picking fun! I love doing "U Pick"/pick your own with kids. So cool for them to experience and see what their food looks like before it's transported to the grocery store or the dinner table. There is only a short walk (like 1-2 min depending how quickly you walk) from the parking & paying area to the strawberry picking fields. We went today. There is no shade in the picking area, so plan accordingly. Bring your own bag or bucket to carry your strawberries home, or you can pay $1 for a box to carry your berries home in. Tips: - if you have kids, bring your own mini buckets If you can. The owner had 2 mini buckets but if there are others using them, then you're outta luck. - bring your own bag or box to transport the berries home in, or pay $1 for boxes to take home read more

Went to Sun's Strawberries with my family to do some strawberry picking. It was a perfect breezy day to pick some fresh strawberries. Even though it wasn't too hot that day, with the sun beaming I was sweating so much. It was such a fun experience to do with my family. All the kids enjoyed the picking. There wasn't too many big strawberries. We got some standard size ones and they were pretty juicy. If you rather not do the picking yourself, they sell strawberries at the stand all packed abd ready to go. They also sell fresh honey which I couldn't leave without buying some. We did not have to reserve a spot. It wasn't too busy since the strawberry picking season just started. There's different types of strawberries so if you're looking for a specific one you can ask them. They are super nice and will point you to the right direction. read more

Be sure to bring some good scissors to help pick the strawberries easier. Bring sunblock, hat, and bug spray. I got like 3 bug bites. $20 for each bucket and $3 for entrance fee per person. We had appointment for the past Saturday 9:30am. It's cash or Venmo only. It was not busy at all. Maybe like 3 other groups were picking. The strawberries were huge! I thought they were organic, but I guess they are not. They are really sweet though. Also bring containers to take your strawberries to-go. It's $1 for a to-go container for your strawberries. A lot of bending to pick strawberries. Dress accordingly. We went in the morning so it was breezy and a little chilly. read more

We almost didn't get accepted in because most of the strawberries are small. But they offered to give us our money back if we don't find enough. Thankfully, we found a whole bucket full. The bucket was $20 & $3 each person for entry. The strawberries are so sweet! Def will be coming back for more. They accept Venmo & cash only! read more

Hidden gem in Elk Grove! This strawberry farm allows you to pick your own strawberries, which is a great activity for families. If you don't want to pick, they also sell them by the bucket, half flat, and full flat. We arrived at 4:30 pm, and they usually stop admission at 4 pm, but the lady said she'd let us pick if we could come back by 5:10 pm. They charge $15 to pick for a maybe 1-2 gallon bucket (I don't know the exact size) and they charge $3 for admission per person. My brother and I went so it was $15 + $3 + $3, so $21 for whatever we could pick and fit in the bucket. Bring cash because they don't accept card. Also bring your own bags or boxes! We ended up picking about 10 lbs worth of strawberries! So once you get your bucket, you walk along the dirt path, and there's a natural right curve to walk on. You'll have to walk at least 400m to get to the field...I didn't really keep track...really just guessing lol. But once you see the ostriches on your right, look to your left and there's the strawberry field. There wasn't anyone watching us per se, but if there is, they'll tell you not to cross over the lines of strawberries and ask that you walk to the end of the row to get to the next. Anyway, there's a good mix of big and tiny strawberries, and all sizes in between. Be strategic about how you fill your bucket with a mix of all sizes! There's a good amount of parking on a Friday afternoon, but I can imagine weekends can get a bit busy. There also weren't a lot of people when we went, so we didn't really have to worry about social distancing. They have portapotties if you need. Make sure to wear sunblock and a hat, and bring some water! 30 minutes seemed like a long time but if you're planning to do some careful picking and take pictures you might need longer than 30 minutes. Might be a little pricey than what you might pay for at the grocery stores, but you're supporting local farmers/businesses! read more

Whenever we crave for strawberries this is the place we come to! My son loves to pick his own and I find it better to pick your own too. They're fresher and it's so fun to spend time at the farm with the little ones. I'm going to try to make this a summer long tradition. read more

Sun Strawberry - We love coming here for fresh strawberries! - Fruits & Veggies Near Me - Elk Grove, California

They moved the strawberry patch to side of property so you walk next to a super busy road. Prices also pretty high for non organic giant strawberries. I used to like the ambiance when it was set back behind the place. Now it's just not worth it for us. There's organic places in Galt with great prices and your family isn't walking down a dangerous road. Won't be back. read more

Strawberry picking is one of my favorite outdoor activities!! June is prime strawberry month and my oh my, there are so many juicy strawberries that are ready to be picked and eaten! Sun's charges by person entrance fee $15 and for the bucket. I think it is a whole experience to go fruit picking and I recommend going early in the morning to avoid the heat! read more

Saw a post on Facebook that Sun's opened for the you-pick season so we checked it out right away! We went on a gloomy day but that was to our benefit - there was only one other party there who left early on so we had the entire farm to ourselves! It was a fun activity to do with the kids. I can imagine it gets pretty crowded when the weather is nice out. The lady said that they require reservations on weekends because it gets so busy, so I'd definitely recommend going on a weekday like we did! Each bucket is $20 and they charge $3 per adult and $2 for kids between ages 3-12. She said they prefer cash but do have Venmo if necessary. Even though $26 seemed steep for a 40-minute stay, I thought it was worth doing at least once a season because it's a different experience and it's actually pretty equivalent to what you buy in the store, maybe even better pricing plus you get to pick what you want! Not to mention you're supporting a local farm. The bucket is pretty big and of course you could stack it as high as you possibly could. She gave us a box once we were done and we walked out with a ton of fresh and ripe strawberries. So delicious! read more

Pretty cool experience, my wife and I paid $6 for one basket and the price was $4 per pound. The strawberries were amazing!

Solid five star. Family run and humble. They charge reasonable fee. The other one that I called force to buy ticket online with one bucket per person. We can't eat five buckets of strawberries. So we came here instead . they don't force us to buy one bucket per person. We just buy entry fee and decide how many bucket we want. Highly recommending this place. read more

Convenient for being the strawberry farm that open the latest (6pm) in Sacramento. Went there for the first time and was easy to spot from the road. Nice to know they also sells cherries and blueberry at the farm. Recommend putting in sunblock due to the heat. Bring a pair of a scissor to easily get the strawberries. Have portable bathroom and good amount of space to park. read more

What a hidden gem! We had a great time bringing my little toddler here since she loves strawberries! Call ahead to see if theyre open for the day. Fees: $3 per adult, $15 per bucket if you want to pick your own strawberries. The berries were soo sweet and fresh! Need I say more? Not sure if theyre organic. My guess is theyre not but we just triple soak and washed with salt, vinegar and baking. We didnt see any bugs coming out but if there were then ehh..bonus protein, right? Will I be back? Mos def. read more

Sun Strawberry - $20 bucket - Fruits & Veggies Near Me - Elk Grove, California

When strawberries are in season and Sun's open, we don't get strawberries anywhere else! The strawberries are so sweet, you can smell them and I do exactly that as I carry my box of 4 to my car, and my nose and heart are happy! There has been a few times where I felt the strawberries weren't as flavorful or as sweet which is a disappointment but overall, they're usually so sweet and yummy! read more

I had fun picking strawberries with my brothers. Wish it was cheaper tho. Had to pay for entrance fee

Such sweet strawberries! we didn't do the upick but saw many people carrying out buckets of strawberries. we bought vegetables and strawberries from the farm stand that they were so fresh and flavorful read more

I love that they are open every day of the week when it is in season. With that said, do call the day ahead or morning of to make sure they have enough strawberries available for you to go do U-Pick. Price is 3$ per person for entrance and 15$ for a little bucket. Please do not skip the small strawberries! Both the small and large size were super sweet. We really enjoyed the strawberries and even love that this farm is so close to home, like not out in Galt or Stockton! read more

Best strawberry I every had!!! The customer service was really helpful! Plus sometime they have rare fruits that are to hard to pass up. 10/10 would recommend! read more

I've been buying strawberries from here for years. They are delicious. This is a great place to bring your kids and family.

This place is the only U-Pick Strawberry patch + fruit stand that is open in Elk Grove right now (COVID-19). My family and I came here around 2:30 PM and the owner warned us that the strawberry selection for U-Pick weren't as big anymore. My family and I still decided to pick strawberries and fill up our $15 bucket. We had a great time picking and take pictures, although it was very hot. The owner was also very nice and gracious and let us take our time picking. Strawberries were smaller but still tasted great; I think I'll make a smoothie out of them. read more

Sun Strawberry - Only took me 30 minutes to pick these - Fruits & Veggies Near Me - Elk Grove, California

I drive 40+ minutes for these strawberries. If I have any potluck to attend in spring/summer, I wash and hull a flat of these strawberries, and it's always a hit. They're picked at peak ripeness and better than anything I could possibly cook or bake myself. Most people have never tasted strawberries like these! read more

I love this fruit stand. They have yummy dark red juicy sweet strawberries. They sell other fruits and vegetables too. I have seen onions, corn (which was yummy), blueberries (yummy), cherries (extra yummy), watermelon, snap peas, eggplant, local honey, homemade jam and more. These items are not always in stock. It depebds on the season and what they grow. Everything is grown locally (a few feet from their fruit stand). They are local farmers. And you can even pick your own buckst of strawberries in their field. I haven't done it before. The fruit stand is pretty small. Going early is the best timd to go. There will be more fruits and veggies. Most of the time they have 2-4 different fruit or veggie options. I recommend going if you are nearby. The person that works there is usually friendly. He said they don't own the land. They rent it. Visit them when you are nearby. read more

I been going here every years and this year they decided to charge $3 per person for admission plus the normal $15 per bucket. Why are you charging $3 per person? For what? For going in and picking our own strawberries? So a family of 5 would get charged an extra $15 just for going in.. doesn't make sense since you didn't charge the fee the other years. What is different now? What's so special this year that you think oh let's charge them $3 per person? No good reason. Just trying make money off of us. I'll find another strawberry picking place that doesn't charge admission fee. read more

First time picking strawberries. They provided buckets to pick strawberries and a cardboard tray + bags to pack your hand picked strawberries. One bucket to pick your own strawberries were $15. A 3x3x3" basket of strawberries and cherries were $3 each. Today was hot and a lot of people came, but there were less strawberries to pick because we were late in the game to come pick. They had plenty to sell before I left the place though. And it was sweet! read more
