Spivey Farms

6101 S County Rd 39, Plant City, FL 33567

At Spivey Farms you will delicious pick your own strawberries, but also much much more!

“It’s always been a philosophy of our farm since its inception and the trend continues today that the flavor you get from your produce is heavily dependent on how it was picked at the farm level. For example, a gassed red tomato does not have the flavor of a tomato that is allowed to ripen naturally. A gassed tomato is picked when it is a mature green and the flavor profile carries throughout the tomato until it is consumed.

We stress from day one of the harvesting season that if a strawberry on the bush is not red, there’s no reason to pick it. For one, a berry that hasn’t fully ripened will not have the flavor the consumer is looking for. Secondly, the more red a strawberry gets, the larger the fruit size becomes. Strawberries are such a perishable commodity that they should be in a customer’s home within days of harvesting. Picking a fully red strawberry gives our customers the flavor they are after and the incentive to repurchase quicker. If a consumer doesn’t like how something tastes, they’re hesitant to buy that produce again. Spivey Farms is committed to harvesting red, ripe fruit that will have a flavor profile matched by very few in the industry.”
