Our Blueberries
We offer a variety of three different blueberries. All of which were released by the University of Florida between 2007 to 2013.
U-pick is typically available between the months of March through May depending on each year’s growth rates.
Throughout u-pick season the farm is open Saturdays and Sundays from 9 am to 3 pm. During this time you can order pre-picked or frozen berries here on our website. You will also be able to find us at Haile farmer’s market and Alachua County farmer’s market!
