Everyday Holiday-style

Blueberry muffin Christmas

You can make any morning a “special holiday morning” with blueberries. It’s a sneaky way to make the season slow down and last a little bit longer. Elevate the status of “normal” days with festive fare. It can be as easy as adding blueberries to your oatmeal or cereal, or baking blueberry pancakes or muffins. You can use frozen blueberries straight from the freezer with no thawing! You literally just add them into the oatmeal or the batter frozen and then cook it. Muffins are especially cheery and keep well for those that work the night-shift or just sleep really late.

Little helpers?

Some kids love to help cook and this may be a good project they can help you with. Muffins are designed to be a little “rustic”, so if they end up being lopsided or uneven, its just fine. If your kids aren’t familiar with what a muffin is, you may want to call them breakfast-cupcakes, because that just sounds like a party.

Faster yet

If you really want to speed this up, buy some ready-made plain muffin mix and just add in your wholesome frozen blueberries that you hand-picked. Then only talk about how good they are, not how quickly you made them.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year Ya’all!

We look forward to seeing you in June of 2025. Summertime will be here before you know it.

Last Chance

Last chance to pick. There are still lots of blueberries to pick, however they will not last past the forthcoming rain next week. Our season is officially ending Sunday July 14th, so if you want to pick blueberries for eating, for freezing, for canning, for juicing, or for making wine or jelly now is your chance to rake the berries in! We will honor our recent sale of getting the second bucket for half price.

Picking is available until Sunday July 14th at dark. (You are welcome to call if you want to confirm or check on conditions: 706-518-8869.)

General info if you haven’t been here before…

We supply a bucket with a removable liner for you to carry your berries home. So you don’t need to bring anything… except a $20, which is the price of the big bucket. You may want to wear a hat, but the morning and evening picks are very pleasant, breezy, and shady on most of the field. Rain or shine.

2024 Blueberry Season Begins

Blueberry Season Begins

It’s Official – Blueberry season begins!

How refreshing to finally see a great mass of blueberries at the end of May! It has been several years since we’ve seen blueberries in May. This year, in 2024, the berries are beautiful, and the bushes are loaded.

Overview of our schedule

We will open Wednesday, May 29th, 2024 for a morning pick only (no evening pick). Then our normal days and hours will start the following day – on Thursday, May 30th with both a morning and an evening pick. We will keep our regular days of Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays with the normal morning and evening picks. PLUS, we will be adding some days according to how the ripening progresses.

Wednesday, May 29th – Morning Pick 8 AM to 11 AM (before it gets hot) No evening pick on this day.

We will be open these days with both
a Morning Pick 8 AM to 11 AM, and Evening Pick 6 PM to 9 PM
Thursday May 30th
Sunday, June 2nd
Tuesday, June 4th

If you have a large group, please call (706) 518-8869 and we will try to accommodate your schedule.

How it works

We provide a bucket and liner. You keep the liner to gently carry your berries home. It’s that easy! The bucket size is two and a half quarts and the price is $20 per bucket. So all you have to do is show up… best if you wear a hat.

Do you spray your plants?

No. Our berries are grown with organic practices and are not sprayed with any pesticide. The only thing we put on our berry plants is rain, and when it doesn’t rain, we water them with spring water.

What if it rains?

Our pick days are rain or shine. The berries are definitely fresh, rain-washed is a bonus! If Mother Nature sends some rain… its a great chance to wear your boots. (Picking in the rain has proven to be more fun than you would think.)
