Our U-Pick farm is perfect for kids and families! Join us monthly on Saturdays in July and August for $20/gallon organic blueberries and let your kids experience picking their own berries.
Info: Our berries are 100% organic and are never sprayed. We have over 365 bushes which are easily accessible for kids and adults alike. We provide the containers but don’t expect anything fancy, you might get a gallon milk jug or a broken in bucket but they are all gallon size+ and are great at holding blueberries. We are outside 90% of the time waiting on customers but if we have taken a sandwich break give us a quick call at (828)683-3608 and we will head down to the field.
