Carandale farm has strawberries for PYO and pre-picked sales.
It is our first fruit of the season starting in mid-June. Our Fall
Season starts when fall bearing red raspberries ripen and continues until
the completion of Concord Grape harvest in mid-October.
We are located in South-Central
Dane County, 3 1/2 miles west of Oregon and just 8 miles south of Madison. We are within
25 miles of most locations in Dane, Rock and Green Counties.

We hope you find our website to be informative, educational and just plain fun to browse through. Comments for improvement are always welcome.

Sorry, we do not ship produce because we cannot guarantee freshness and
quality.
We offer many other
fruits in addition to strawberries, raspberries and concord grapes, but
these are only available (when in season) at the Dane County Farmer's
market (DCFM) on the Square on Saturdays, and on Wednesdays in front of
the City County building on Martin Luther King Boulevard. Check
the Daily Update to see what is in season and for other Farmer's Markets
we may attend.
Many of the fruits are
from our test plot and not available in large enough quantities for
on-farm sales. Seasonal offerings will include: cherries
(tart, sweet and sweet-tart cross); pears (European and Asian),
plums (European, American & Asia-American cross), currants (black, red,
white and pink), gooseberries, Saskatoon, Quince, and Blackberries.
Other unusual fruits including Sea Berry, Aronia and Elderberry may also
be available.
