2026 Blueberry Season Update - July 13th

Blueberry season is officially underway, and this week looks a little different for us!

​

U-Pick is still closed at this time. We are watching the field closely and will post an update as soon as we know when U-Pick will open. Please do not come to the farm for U-Pick until we announce that it is open. We will likely be open this weekend.

​

Wednesday, July 15:

 

  • We will be at the Boyne City Farmers Market from 8a-12p at the normal market location.

​

  • There will be no Gaylord Farmers Market on Wednesday due to Alpenfest. Any pre-orders that were placed for Gaylord Market pickup will be available at the farm on the front porch.

​

  • We will also have fresh-picked blueberries available for self-serve porch pickup at the farm. Please bring exact cash and place payment in the lockbox located to the left of the front door.

 

Saturday, July 18:

 

  • We will be at the Boyne City Farmers Market at the normal location from 8a-12p
     

  • The Gaylord Farmers Market will be at its temporary Alpenfest location near The Happy Goat, just south of Alpine Tavern on South Otsego Avenue. More details and updates will be posted on Facebook as needed.
     

  • Pre-orders are strongly encouraged and help us plan how much to pick, pack, and bring to each location.

 

Before heading to the farm, please check our website, Facebook, Instagram, or phone message for the latest picking conditions and berry availability.

​

Pre-orders are encouraged. We often sell out during peak season, and reserved orders are picked and packed first.

Fresh Berries, Picked for You

Pre-ordering is the easiest way to make sure you get the blueberries you want. During peak season, we often sell out, so reserved orders are picked and packed first.

​

Choose the pickup option that works best for you:

​

Farm pickup: Contactless front porch pickup at the farm


Gaylord Farmers Market: Wednesday & Saturday pickup


Boyne City Farmers Market: Wednesday & Saturday pickup

 

Payment is made when you pick up your order.
