5th Annual Blueberry Festival

We had a great time hosting our 5th annual blueberry festival.  The sunny weather was perfect for the kids and their families to enjoy the festival activities and chose their own bucket for berry picking. The kids lined up for fantastic face painting, unique balloon creations, pony and hay rides.  Everyone had fun with the new activities in the play area, relaxing in the shaded picnic area; visiting the ducks, goats and rabbit, smiling for the camera at the farm’s photo booths, the BBQ and cutting their own vibrant dahlia bouquet. Also, hundreds of buckets worth of berries went home to eat, freeze or for baking.

Thank you for making the festival a huge success!

Easy Picking

We are having a great season and the berry bushes are still fully loaded with plump and delicious berries for u-pick or we-pick.  The berry varieties are Duke, Nui, Spartan and Toro.

Bryant Blueberry Farm and Nursery

The thing you’ll love most about the Bryant Blueberry Farm isn’t the yummy blueberries (although they’re definitely a close second). It’s the kidi-ness (ooh, a Colbert-ism) of this family farm. It’s like an oversized backyard, but it’s bursting with berry goodness and some farm animals too. After they’ve picked their baskets full of U-pick blueberries, tayberries and currents, set the little lot loose to play.

They’ll stay busy feeding the goats, chickens and ducks, when they’re done swinging on the swing set and drawing on the chalkboards that are set up throughout the field to occupy the wiggle worms while you pick.

Most families spend hours at the farm, picking berries and playing outside. So pack up a lunch to enjoy with the kiddos in the fully shaded picnic area. Juice and water are available for purchase, but the rest of the feast is up to you.

Blueberries

The Blueberries are abundant this year! Along with our 8 original varieties of early and mid-seasoning ripening Blueberries we have an additional 9 varieties of Blueberries many of which are late season ripening which should keep the berry picking great through September.

Blueberries are among the highest anti-oxidant value fruits, They are high in vitamins, minerals, folic acid and soluble fiber. They are sweet and juicy. Blueberries are one of the most preferred berries in preparation in making pies, muffins, pancakes, cobblers, smoothies, jams and jellies. They can be refrigerated up to a week and they freeze beautifully in an air tight container.
