Blueberry Picking FAQs

When are you open for blueberry picking?

Our blueberries are in season from mid-July to mid-August. Sign up for our e-mail list to be notified when blueberry picking officially begins. Picking hours are posted above.

Are children allowed to pick blueberries?

Yes, we are a family-friendly farm and love to have children come pick. Children must be supervised while picking to maintain safety and protect the crop. Horseplay, running in the berry patch, and throwing berries is not allowed.

Will you pick blueberries for me?

We have fresh blueberry pints and quarts for sale in the shop during peak season (late July-early August). First-come, first-serve. To reserve some, email or call ahead, then pick up when we’re open. Frozen blueberries are available year-round.

Are you open for blueberry picking if it’s wet or raining?

The berry field is open during posted hours. You can still pick blueberries during light rain. Wear boots, a hat, and raincoat and bring a covered container to put your berries in. We close the field for thunderstorms and heavy rain. If it’s been a rainy week, we may post additional picking days/times on our Facebook page.

Can I pay with a credit card?

Yes. We accept, cash, checks, and all major credit cards (Mastercard, Visa, Discover).

Do I need to wash my blueberries?

Our blueberries are organically grown and spray-free. Washing berries is personal preference since there are no chemical residues. Don’t wash blueberries until right before serving.

How do I freeze blueberries?

Remove any leaves or stems from your blueberries. Pour into Ziploc freezer bags. Press out the air, seal, and freeze. We freeze our blueberries without washing. If you prefer to wash them, rinse the berries, then freeze in a single layer on cookie sheets. Transfer to freezer bags once frozen.

How long do blueberries keep?

For maximum freshness, cool blueberries as soon as possible. Unwashed blueberries keep in the fridge for about a week. Freeze for longer storage. Frozen blueberries keep up to 1 year.
