Blueberry Sweetness

Blueberry Sweetness

These smiles are just as natural as the blueberries at RabbitEye Farm, West Point, GA. [Quicklink to Directions Here] We have several varieties of blueberries that are at their peak right now. All are grown with natural practices and no pesticides. The rows of bushes are terraced and easy to pick from a top side and a lower side. That’s great for both tall and small folks! We supply a bucket with a liner… we keep the bucket, but you simply lift out the liner to gently carry your berries home. (you can see what they are like in the photos… more below)

Today starts the second full week in June already! Remember that blueberry season doesn’t usually last past the month of June, so don’t wait too late. Blueberries freeze really well, and many of our wonderful berry lovers have already picked some for the winter months.

We have morning and evening picks listed because that is when there is shade on the field. (If you need to come during the in-between hours, its okay on days Sunday thru Thursday.)

More Beautiful Folks:

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.)
