Saturday, July 11
Update 5:20 pm
Toro have been pretty well picked, but after walking each row I see quite a few Spartan available. They are mostly smaller and would be picked individually so it wouldn't be a good time to pick large quantities, but they are nice berries, particularly for baking and pancakes. We will be open Sunday and more will have ripened by tomorrow.
Monday, July 13, we will open Blue Crop for the first time and lots more Earliblue have ripened, so picking will be very good.
Once again, in order to maintain social distancing, we're asking that you choose a bush and pick all ripe berries on your side of the bush before moving on to another one. We must avoid crowding others. It's fine for family members to pick side by side.
For over 25 years, our family has provided the community with the biggest, sweetest blueberries in a serene, rural setting.
For the first time ever, we will be open six days a week instead of seven. The picking schedule will be 7:00 am to 8:00 pm as follows:
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday - Earliblue, Blue Crop (and Legacy when ready)
We have kept our price at $1.20/lb again this year!

Children are welcome to help you pick. For their safety, we can't provide the toys that were available prior to the Covid-19 virus. Please supervise your children closely to maintain social distancing from other pickers. We appreciate your efforts to keep yourself, your family, and others safe and healthy.
Official service animals are allowed in the fields, but please do not bring pets with you due to sanitation concerns. We strive to maintain a clean, healthy environment.
