SAN DIEGO (FOX 5/KUSI) — After the abnormal winter weather and historic rainfall caused Carlsbad Strawberry Company to delay opening their U-Pick fields to the public, the business just announced they’re back open.

The company previously told FOX 5/KUSI they lost out on 85% of strawberry production due to the harsh winter conditions. Owner Jimmy Ukegawa said their harvest was cut down from eight months to five months.

Harsh winter delays strawberry season for some U-Pick farms

The company, which has been growing strawberries for four generations, announced their fields in Carlsbad are now ready to welcome people back to enjoy the experience of picking fresh strawberries.

The U-Pick strawberry fields are located at 1050 Cannon Rd. It costs $15 for a bucket and $5 without. U-Pick stops selling tickets at 4:30 p.m.

The company also has strawberry stands located at the corner of San Dieguito Road and Old El Camino Real and at the Carlsbad Flower Fields.
