"It's hard to find organic U-pick!"
...so this place was great! We were about a week ahead of schedule for the blueberries (which I was really hoping for) and the raspberries were a bit sparce, but we managed to pick 2 lbs (which costed us $3 total...can't beat that!).
They were certified organic about 2 years ago, and the plants are a bit small, but in the next couple of years they are really going to get big and be great. The nice thing was, the plants were close to the ground so 'F' had no trouble picking his own berries to eat. I did feel a bit like I was living out 'Blueberries for Sal' with him digging into my bucket to eat the berries I had picked all of the time (I guess it was easier than picking them and he was assured they would be ripe)!
One thing though, I wasn't being stuck by the raspberry plants as much as I was by some of the weeds. I suppose that comes along with picking at an organic place, but just beware.
The farm has loads of offerings, so we will be sure to go back again and do some more picking. They had strawberries ready also (they looked nice, but 'F' is allergic to them, so we tend not to have them in the house). They have other fruits and veg (check their website).
The folks working there are really nice too. One fellow pointed me in the direction of the raspberries (he actually walked us out there) and picked a couple for 'F' to eat...just to get us started.
Two notes:
1) There is currently a lot of road construction along Hwy 30, so be prepared for that (summer 09).
2) They are actually on Gillihan Road (there is a typo above, just in case your GPS doesn't know what you are talking about).
