Organic Berries Straight from the Farm!
See you in the summer. Raspberries should arrive after July 4;
Blueberries around late July; Blackberries after Labor Day.

We are a pick-your-own (PYO) farm or you can buy pre-picked berries at our farm store, along with our certified organic jam, local maple syrup, coffee, and books. We also have free wireless Internet connection at the farm store.

Our berries are Certified Organic and the best flavor you can imagine. Maybe even beyond your imagination! Come and pick your own for the best value, or buy your berries pre-picked at our farm store.

We are open from July 4 weekend through Columbus Day weekend. On each of the above long weekends we will certainly be selling jam, maple syrup, books, and coffee as these weekends are usually just before and just after the harvest/picking season, respectively. The picking season runs from early July through through early October until the first frost. Raspberries ripen first (in 2009 we started picking July 11). Blueberries are ready in late July (in 2009 we started picking July 25). Blackberries ripen after Labor Day. We harvested a small crop of Cherries in 2009--our first from these young trees--and are hopeful again for 2010. They ripened over the last 2 weeks of July.

Berry picking is what our ancestors did in ancient times, and picking your own berries in their natural organic state recreates a primal human experience. It is utterly unlike the world of TV and electronic entertainment, and is inherently refreshing. This is absolutely the best time a family can spend together in the summer! And good for your health too. Blueberries in particular are a super food with phenomenal healing and rejuvenative properties.

We might just have the BEST berries in central Vermont, or maybe in all of New England!
(This is our view, but we are not biased of course!)
