July 24,  2023 update:    The field is now closed for the year.

 We started picking this year on June 6th.  This is the earliest we have ever started.  

Note that updates can also be obtained from the Berry Hill Farm Facebook page at the link below:

As a reminder we take only cash or check. No credit cards or Venmo.

 

Side note: in years past some customers have noted some chigger bites while picking in the lower field. Long pants and/or bug spray on your legs is advisable.

We do not spray the berries.   To control fruit flies (which lay eggs=larvae in the fruit if not controlled), we use an organic bait applied at the base of every third plant throughout the season.  The active organic ingredient is called spinosad. 

 

You cannot see the berries with sunglasses on, so we suggest you don't bring  pricey prescription sunglasses in the field.   They are too often lost if parked on your head and very hard to find in the  bushes.

 

No need to bring any container to pick in.   We have several hundred buckets for you to use.  We line them with new plastic grocery bags which you remove from the bucket to weigh the fruit and take the fruit home in the bag.    We also have a large but limited supply of shoulder straps to hold the bucket, freeing your hands for picking.   If you bring your own container or basket, let us weigh it to establish tare weight before you go in the field.

 

Official reported temperatures are taken in the shade.    In the sun, temperatures can be 15 degrees hotter.   We encourage you to come early in the day.   

 

We can accommodate the handicapped by letting you drive down to the lower field, saving the walk.  Get buckets from us before driving down there.   Bring whatever chair you might need.    We discourage using walkers - the field is uneven, adding to the unsteadiness of the person using it.
