Strawberry Picking West Michigan

Strawberries

Strawberries are what Krupp Farms was built on, and more than a century later, they're still our bread and butter. We grow them across 20-plus acres of Michigan farmland and offer them two ways: pick your own out in the field, or grab a tray of pre-picked berries from the Berry Barn.
