Updated July 31, 2011: Our picking season is over. Thank you for a terrific season!! We will (weather obliging) reopen the 3rd week in June.
This site is updated on a regular basis - always check it before coming out (or call 540.544.6833). We close if over-picked in order for berries to ripen.
Some "berry patch" tips
- Children are welcome but they must be here to pick and under direct adult supervision at ALL times; please ask them to treat our animals, home, and other customers with respect.
- If you are bringing kids, we recommend picking early in the morning before it gets too warm.
- Porta-potty available
- Bring a cooler if you're going to be doing anything other than heading home. We want your blueberries to have the longest possible shelf-life.
- Blueberries are simple to freeze - just be sure they are dry, and plop them into a freezer baggie or container. That's it. Since we don't use any sprays, there's really no need to wash them. But if you do, be sure to let them dry. Damp berries spoil faster than dry ones.
- No dogs, no kidding - we have free-range chickens.

Thank you for your patronage!
