Spradlin Farm is a bit of a drive from Montevallo, but well worth the trip. The farm is located in Vinemont, AL, about an hour-long drive from Birmingham. A visit to Spradlin Farm has much to offer, but for those who can not make a trip out to the farm, their wares can be found at the Pepper Place Market in downtown Birmingham from 7:00- 12:00 on Saturdays. (More information on Pepper Place Market can be found on a previous post here: http://umsummerharvest.blogspot.com/2011/06/pepper-place-market.html) The farm's hours are 8:00 am to 6:00 pm every Monday through Saturday from April through the end of August. They are closed on Sundays, and hours are subject to change during farmers' market season, so be sure to call ahead of your visit.


Spradlin Farm is owned by Doug and Sue Spradin. The farm offers a variety of produce and baked goods. You can expect to find strawberries in April, blackberries in June, and blueberries from June to July. They also offer a large selection of peaches from June to September. New varieties of peaches are available every two weeks including Red Haven, Georgia Bell, Spring Gold, and many other favorites. The produce selection is in season from June through September and includes tomatoes, squash, beans, peas, peppers, okra, and much more. Occasionally, Spradlin Farm offers reduced, “you pick” prices on certain items as they are available.

In addition to all the fresh produce to be found on Spradlin Farm, they offer a huge selection of homemade goods as well. Selections include fruit turnovers, cookies, breads and cakes, fresh salsa, relishes, and more. They also make homemade ice cream with flavors like strawberry, peach, chocolate, and vanilla. With so much to choose from, a visit to Spradlin Farm is well worth the drive. You're sure to not be disappointed!
