Alternate date: If we get rained out in the morning, we will reschedule for Thursday evening at 6 pm – but the weather pattern lately has been rain in the afternoon and evening.
We are coming into the end of the season. We probably only have a week or two left. Blackberries are still ripening. Late season blueberries have been a bit of a challenge with the birds, but we’ve deployed bird netting and it’s been working.
Available for picking:
blackberries: thornless varieties including Ponca, Osage, Ouachita, Arapaho. Kiowa is thorny, but has excellent fruit.
blueberries: late season rabbiteye varieties such as Tifblue and Powderblue.
All berries are $10 a quart or $40 a gallon. You only pay for what you pick (no entry fee). We accept cash (preferred), Venmo, and credit cards.
We provide picking buckets and transfer the picked berries to take-home containers.
We are a no-smoking farm. We cannot allow pets into the orchard.
