Strawberry Picker in Virginia

Virginia growers know strawberries move fast: blossoms, berries, and harvest windows all come in a rush, while labor keeps getting harder to find. Our self-propelled strawberry pickers are designed to keep Virginia farms—whether you are running a coastal you-pick operation in Pungo or managing acres of berries in the Shenandoah Valley—harvesting efficiently even on tight weather windows. By automating the heaviest parts of picking and reducing dependence on seasonal labor, these machines help you cover more rows per day while treating fruit gently enough for fresh market customers. Integrated collection systems, ergonomic work platforms, and all-terrain capability let crews work longer with less fatigue, turning Virginia’s short, sweet strawberry season into a more predictable and profitable part of your operation.

Virginia History

Long before Europeans arrived, the land that is now Virginia was home to numerous Indigenous peoples, including Powhatan, Monacan, and Cherokee groups, whose cultures and trade networks shaped the region for thousands of years. In 1607, English settlers founded Jamestown, the first permanent English settlement in North America, setting the stage for tobacco agriculture, transatlantic trade, and the tragic rise of chattel slavery. Virginia became a royal colony in 1624 and later played a central role in the American Revolution; key figures such as George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and James Madison all hailed from the Commonwealth. On June 25, 1788, Virginia ratified the U.S. Constitution as the tenth state in the Union. During the Civil War, Virginia was both a battlefield and the seat of the Confederacy, leaving a dense legacy of historic sites. In the 20th and 21st centuries, the state diversified far beyond its agricultural roots into technology, defense, government services, and tourism, while still supporting thousands of specialty crop and berry farms.
