Hi Blueberry Lovers,

Just a reminder that our fresh blueberry season has now finished at Blueberry Country Waipu - meaning there is no fresh fruit available and PYO is now closed. It did wrap up earlier than expected due to the recent high winds.

Our store is still open on weekdays from 8:30am to 4:30pm for:
- Frozen blueberries
- Real fruit ice creams
- And a range of blueberry products, available while stock lasts. Please note that we are no longer open for weekend sales.

Thank you for your continued support, we look forward to seeing you again later in the year for our next fresh season.

Good morning blueberry lovers 🫐

Due to the recent weather events in Northland, our fresh fruit season has unfortunately been cut short. At this stage, PYO is now closed for the season.

We have a small amount of fresh fruit still available in-store, but stock is very limited and we are not expecting any more this season.

Over Easter, we will be closed from Friday 3rd April through to Monday 5th April.
We will re-open on Tuesday 6th April at 8:30 am, with frozen blueberries and ice creams available 🍦🫐

Thank you all for your support this season; we really appreciate it and hope you have a great Easter break and stay safe 🙂

We'll update further regarding PYO openings around the week.

ORCHARD UPDATE

Following the recent storm, we’ve completed a full walk-through and are pleased to say damage is minimal. We’ve reopened today and will be open for Pick Your Own all weekend.

Some fruit has been lost due to the wind, which means the season will be slightly shorter than expected; so now’s the time to come out and make the most of it.

At this stage, we’re expecting PYO to finish after Easter weekend, with a final confirmation to come.

We look forward to welcoming you all back to the orchard

25/03/2026

With some pretty rough weather on the way, we’ve made the call to close both the orchard and the store on Thursday 26th March to keep everyone safe.

We’re planning to reopen on Friday (weather permitting) and will keep you updated if anything changes.

Thanks so much for your understanding, stay safe out there 💙
