Berry Care Tips

Chill

Berries should be stored in the refrigerator and will keep for several days depending on the variety and/or the weather and humidity.

Rinse

Rinse berries right before using them by floating them in water, then gently transferring to a colander or paper towel to remove moisture.

De-stem

De-stem your berries after rinsing, just before use, and they will last longer. The exception is raspberries, which naturally lose their stems when picked.

Use or Freeze

Berries can be frozen in a single layer on a cookie sheet then packed in freezer bags or containers once firm enough to handle.

About our ‘No Spray’ Berries

Our berries are grown without the use of chemical sprays, including both the foliage and fruit. This means there is nothing on the fruit (except maybe a little dust!). Rinsing our fruit is still important for sanitary purposes and hand-washing is always recommended prior to picking.

We hope you enjoy our delicious ‘No Spray’ berries!
