Despite the hard frost in the late spring, we're having an excellent year so far. We've never seen a blueberry crop like this before! The berries themselves are the largest we've ever had. Combine that with the number of berries (there are huge clusters everywhere), and you have great picking conditions. Now is the time to pick! Also, post cards and emails have been sent out. If you were expecting one but did not receive it, feel free to give us a call, email us or stop on out. Hope to see you soon!

The patch looks a little different this year. There are a few less trees, a giant net,
and some of the younger bushes are finally taking off. The giant project during
the off-season was to "net" the patch, essentially hanging a giant net over the top of
patch. This should keep the birds out, and mean more berries for your bucket and less
for the birds. For those of you who weren't particularly fond of
the squaker (the recorded bird noises) or the air cannon, you'll be much happier to know
both have been retired in favor of the net.
It looks like the official opening will be this Friday, July 9th.
As always, give us a call or check back here on the website for updated picking conditions.
We'll see you at the patch!
