YUM! It's official we will be open for picking for the 2024 season beginning Friday, July 5th. We are open Friday’s from 5:00PM – 8:00PM and Saturday’s from 8:00AM – 2:00PM.
We currently offer 5 different varieties and will have new berries ripening every week through early-August.
Cost: U-Pick = $2.25 lb.
We pick = $6.00 qt.
We will have frozen blueberries that we will be selling for $20 per gallon bag. These berries are already washed and dried thoroughly before we freeze them so they can be separated into smaller portions or used by the cup as needed.
We raise our berries naturally. This means we do not use any commercial, synthetic herbicides, pesticides, or fertilizers in or around our berry fields. We use very little amendments or products, and when we do, we use natural products that are qualified for organic (wood chips/shavings, elemental sulfur) operations.
We strive to continue our commitment to only using natural products and methods for maintenance of our blueberries.
Location-We are located at 69 Saddle Rock Road, Benton, PA which is just 0.4 miles north of Route 118; Saddle Rock Road is 2.5 miles east of Route 118 and Route 239 intersection, and 4.5 miles west of Route 118 and 487 intersection.
When you arrive at the farm, look for the parking area sign and please check in at the Blueberry Welcome Tent to have your container weighed and to be assigned bushes. If you bring your own bucket, please make sure we weigh you and your bucket before you begin picking so we can accurately weigh the berries you pick. Just kidding we don't weigh you, but we do weigh your bucket!!!
