Free Phone App Locates Strawberry Farms across North Carolina
North Carolina Strawberries - Just Ripe For You!
"This new free app provides users with a quick and easy way to locate fresh, local strawberries," said Debby Wechsler, NCSA executive director. "It's as simple as dipping a delicious strawberry into melted chocolate."
The app includes more than 150 farms where visitors can pick and purchase plump North Carolina strawberries. After users download the app, they can find the nearest strawberry farm by following these simple steps:
1. On the screen simply tap "Find a County."
2. All 100 North Carolina counties will be displayed.
3. Scroll to the desired county and tap.
4. A list of NCSA member strawberry farms in that county will appear, along with the address, phone number, an email link and a link to the farm's website.
Since the app is not map-based, it is easy to view and use on a small screen. App users should call a farm before visiting to check on farm hours and strawberry availability.
"The NCSA Farm Locator app provides users with appealing visuals and lots of helpful information," said Wechsler. "We designed this to help strawberry fans use the latest technology to locate places to pick their favorite fruit."
