We raise our blueberries using organic fertilizer, and no herbicides or pesticides. We have been in operation since 1990. We have a cool, 100 year old restored barn where we sell our berries. Restrooms, water, picnic table and chairs (indoor and outdoor) are available for you to take a break from picking. It is a perfect family activity and we love to have children come and see how food is grown. Ted and Kathy are committed to providing "blueberries at their best!"
General Information:

* 2022 cost - $4.50 per pound u-pick. $7/pint picked (limited availability)
BLUEBERRY POINTERS:
Choose fresh blueberries that are plump and have a solid, dark blue color. • Do not wash blueberries until you are ready to eat them, as washing will remove the bloom (or silvery coating) that protects the berries’ skin from degradation. • Blueberries can be frozen, dried, or canned so that you can enjoy them year round! • Blueberries will stay fresh for up to two weeks if they are stored in a covered container in the refrigerator.
