Produce Farms near Goshen, IN

Goshen

Yoder's has grown strawberries on this stretch of 15th Street for roughly 50 years, opening the patch each June once the berries ripen. Pick your own for $2.25 a pound or grab a flat already picked at the stand. The family runs a second, year-round farm market up in Syracuse, but this Goshen location is strawberries only, and it closes once the plants stop producing. Hours shift with the weather, so a call ahead saves a wasted trip.
