location:

When on Art Road, take the first right onto a dirt road. Drive through the red gate (you will see a blueberry u-pick and NC solar road sign. There will be a tiny table with picking directions. A blue tin pig :) will point you to the bushes. Orange flags note where we think the berries are ripest and most abundant.

parking:

When you turn right into driveway with open red gates, please park to your right, perpendicular to the wooded area, past the telephone pole.

hours:

6 am - 8 pm everyday.

picking tips: 

We think blueberries get sweeter after they sit for few days. Different varieties have different ripening patterns. In general, pick berries when plump and fully blue. If there is a hint of red or white, they will be tart. Even fully blue berries can be sour depending on the variety. For some blueberry facts, more picking tips, and canning recipes click here.
