U-Pick and Gift Shop 

Fields Closed to Pick Your Own As of 8-13-2007

Mother Nature does not go by the Roman Calendar. This season started early and is ending early. Check back in 2008 for an update.

 

 Some growers fields are pesticide free but not pest free--that "all natural" can sometimes translate to mean "neglected field".  Our fields are pest/pesticide free because we micromanage it properly as taught by blueberry experts and that is very labor intensive. Enjoy sampling our many different varieties of blueberries while you pick and feel good knowing they are safe...pesticide free blueberries.

Our fields are manicured like a lawn and clearly marked. The bushes are properly pruned and maintained. 

Bring your own baskets to carry the berries home and if the weather is hot--beverages!

The price per pound is $1.35. There are 18 rows with many different varieties to chose from. Each variety has a different taste, size and shape.
