Blues and Reds

We are not “blue” that our U-Pick Black Raspberry season is over….we just have a lot of blueberries! And red berries!

If you would like some of these, give us a call! We pick daily, and if I don’t get an order that day for berries, I wash and freeze them, just to be sure they are at their freshest. They are great to pull out later for jam, jelly or pies. So, we have:

***Blueberries…….frozen for $6.00/pound

***Red Raspberries…….fresh or frozen for $6.oo/pound

Also, remember we always have fresh eggs and fresh lamb. Give us a call to put your order in, and we will get everything ready for you to come out and pick it up.

Open Tuesday, July 7th

And……one more day! We will open Tuesday, July 7th, at 8:00 a.m. There are still some berries! You have to get low and in the plants, but they are still there! The forecast calls for rain by afternoon, so come early and get some berries!

Open Monday, July 6th

We will open Monday, July 6th, at 8:00 a.m. Come on out! This may be your last chance to get berries! Our season only lasts about 2 weeks, and we are at 2 weeks! We will see what it looks like after Monday and see if we can get in another day.

Happy 4th of July

We are closed today, the 4th of July. We plan to re-open Monday, July 6th, but check back and/or call our number to be sure! Thanks for a great berry season so far! We hope to squeeze in a few more days before the season is over….black raspberries are only on for about 2 weeks.

We will leave you with some inspiration for what to do with your berries. The McCormick’s from Baltimore, Ohio, sent us a picture of the pie they made with the berries they got from us. Wow! Talk about picture perfect!

Open Wednesday, July 1st

We will be open on Wednesday, July 1 at 8:00 a.m.

**There are berries to pick! You have to look in the middle of the plants and down low…but they are there! …

**After we get “picked out” tomorrow, we will close for a day or two. Our next open day will either be Friday, July 3rd or Saturday, July 4th. We know it is hard when you are trying to plan with work schedules and other things….we are close to the end of our 2 week season. There are red ones to ripen, but we just have to see when they will be ready and which day will be best for picking.
