The Strawberry Basket
Welcome to the Strawberry Basket & Big Woods Nectar and the home of Brad and Bess Munsterteiger.
Our story starts in 1983 when Brad’s parents started raising strawberries in Freeport, MN.
Working with them, Brad learned the ins and outs of running a pick your own farm and he developed a love for growing strawberries.
Fast forward 15 years: We bought our land in the Monticello area in 1998 with the dream of starting our own berry farm. In 1999 we planted our first strawberry plants and in 2000 we were open for business.
We added blueberries a couple of years later.
