    A visitor writes on June 17, 2013: "I picked today June 17,2013. It was their first day to pick. To be quite honest, it looked like their last day of picking. The previous reviewer was correct. The 'rows' are terrible to follow. The weeds were everywhere and the berries were awful. I had planned on picking 2 flats....but only ended up picking one. They were super small and definitely not worth the effort. The nice berries were few and very far between. "
    Comments from a visitor on June 16, 2011: "According to the woman I spoke to, they do not accept credit or debit cards. They do accept checks and cash. Also, just to let you know it's not a very good place to pick. There are no real clear rows for strawberry picking and you have to dig through weeds, thistles to get to alot of the strawberry plants. For $ 1.59 a pound/quart it seems pricey considering you have to "find" alot of the strawberry plants amongst the weeds. I have been there a few times and keep hoping they will improved their fields, but they don't. I mean if you're going to have irrigation pipes, wouldn't you want to have nice clear rows of plants? They also tend to pick the choicest berries to sell at $3.99 a lb. Anyway, I am sorry to have to give you a negative report but people need to know what they are in for. I tried it again this year and after 2 hours of picking, I only managed 6 lbs and the berries were very small and the weeds I had to dig through were unbelievable. Just wasn't worth my time and effort. I don't mind the work involved in picking from plants but one shouldn't have to dig through a bunch of weeks. "

Directions: See their website for directions. Payment: Cash, only. "Warren County residents have been fortunate enough to have a Farmers' Market for 35 years. Annually, folks who grow vegetables, fruit, flowers, and more meet each Saturday during the summer and fall months and offer their wares to those who wish to purchase organic foods, fresh baked goodies, seasonal maple syrup, or plants. This year the leaders of the Warren Farmers' Market have decided to start a little earlier, allowing those vendors who have ware to sell the opportunity to do so before the traditional beginning of the market in July. Folks might ask why anyone would like to shop at a Farmers' Market. The reasons are many. First you purchase vegetables and fruits from the folks who grew them. You can also purchase organically grown meats and eggs or freshly baked bread, rolls, cakes, pies or cookies. You can purchase perennials that can be used to enhance your property and fresh cut flowers to brighten the interior of your home. Several vendors offer home canned relishes, jellies, salsas, mustards and more. If you don't like to can but enjoy freshly made items, this is a great place to shop." from their website (Suggested by a visitor, ADDED: July 14, 2011)

Home Canning Kits

Features:

Ball Enamel Waterbath Canner, Including Chrome-Plated Rack and 4-Piece Utensil Set

* All the tools you need for hot waterbath canning - in one comprehensive set!
* Complete with 21 1/2 qt. enameled waterbath canner
* Also includes canning rack, funnel, jar lifter, jar wrencher, bubble freer, tongs and lid lifter.
* A Kitchen Krafts exclusive collection.

This is the same type of standard canner that my grandmother used to make everything from applesauce to jams and jellies to tomato and spaghetti sauce. This complete kit includes everything you need and lasts for years: the canner, jar rack, jar grabber tongs, lid lifting wand, a plastic funnel, labels, bubble freer. It's much cheaper than buying the items separately. You'll never need anything else except jars & lids (and the jars are reusable)! There is also a simple kit with just the canner and rack, and a pressure canner, if you want to do vegetables (other than tomatoes). To see more canners, of different styles, makes and prices, click here!
Don't forget the Ball Blue Book!

Lids, Rings, Jars, mixes, pectin, etc.

Need lids, rings and replacement jars?  Or pectin to make jam, spaghetti sauce or salsa mix or pickle mixes?  Get them all here, and usually at lower prices than your local store!

Get them all here at the best prices on the internet!
