Picking Blueberries at the Farm
Blueberry Bottom Farm allows visitors to pick their own organic blueberries. Our U-Pick visits are a wonderful way for anyone to experience the farm up close and hand-pick their own fresh, organic blueberries.
Please note, strawberries are only available for sale at the Farm stand and not available for U-Pick. Our organic strawberries are hand- picked by our staff so that you’re getting the most delicious fruit!
We pick Strawberries - available through October 2024
Strawberry Quart - $8
As of August 15th - no limit on strawberries.
