It’s ‘Fall’ at the Farm

“Fall” red raspberries are ripe, big, and the plants are loaded. Double Gold (blush) raspberry is just beginning to ripen, plants are loaded but give them another week for a large volume. Blackberries available in small volumes. Still have alot of blueberries on our late blueberry variety. Plenty of beautiful colorful flowers, as well as herbs for cutting. See you in the field!

Saturday & Sunday, July 29-30

We will be CLOSED Saturday July 29. We will be open Sunday July 30 from 9-3.

We are picking blackberries, raspberries, & blueberries, and cutting flowers and herbs.

Blackberries – Yes

Blackberries will be available beginning this Thursday morning. I expect they will be picked out in a short time. More will ripen each day. Red and purple raspberries, blueberries, flowers and herbs available.

Where are the Blackberries?

The first flowers of blackberries were in bloom or close to it when the May 18 freeze occurred. They all froze. The later flowers have set fruit and we are patiently (some folks not so patiently) waiting for them to ripen. Normally we would be picking them now. We had hoped they’d be ready this week but that’s not happening. As soon as it looks like they are getting close to being ripe we will let you know, so stay tuned. We know how popular they are!

In the meantime, we have loads of ripe, large blueberries, and tons of red, black, purple and blush raspberries available for picking, and flowers and herbs available for cutting.
