Picking your own blueberries is one of life’s great treats!
Wander the rows of laden blueberry bushes and pick the plumpest, juiciest berries you can find – and then take your fresh berries home to enjoy.
Here are the farms where you can pick your own blueberries. Contact the farms direct for up-to-date opening hours and more information. If you discover another You Pick farm that we don’t know about or you have a You Pick Blueberry farm that you’d like us to list, please get in touch!
