Wet Hammock Farm

Wet Hammock Farm U-Pick Blueberries and Blackberries, Peaches, seasonal produce, family farm Other crops are coming soon, Peaches in 2015!!

Wet Hammock is the agritourism side of the Douglass Farm that specializes in U-Pick Blackberries, Blueberries, seasonal produce and hydroponics. We are continually adding new production and crops that grow great in North Central Florida so check in often! U-Pick blackberries are available usually from May-Early July and blueberries are from mid April- May. The Douglass Farm has been in agricultura

l production since before the Civil War, chiefly involved in citrus, turpentine and cattle production. Our family moved here from Lake county Florida in 1918 and operated in the citrus industry until the freezes of the 1980s. Since then we have managed a cow-calf operation and have grown and supplied trees to the landscape industry. Now we have added a U-Pick to our farm operations making available fresh Blueberries and Blackberries direct to consumer!

As we wrap up another season at Wet Hammock Farm, we just want to say thank you.

Thank you to every family who spent part of their spring and summer with us. Thank you to everyone who picked berries, carried home flowers, brought their children, told their friends, shared our posts, and supported this little farm.

This year brought so many new faces, and one of our favorite parts of the season was getting to meet all of you. We also loved seeing so many familiar faces return. Many of our customers have been visiting for years, and seeing you come back season after season feels a little like welcoming family home.

We are especially grateful to everyone who shared our farm with others. For as long as we’ve been doing this, our hope has never been to be the biggest attraction around. We simply wanted people to know we’re here. We wanted folks looking for a real farm experience to find us. The fact that so many of you have spread the word means more than we can adequately express.

This isn’t a carnival or a theme park. It’s a working family farm that has been here for more than 100 years. Every season, we feel incredibly fortunate that so many people choose to spend part of their day here, making memories among the berry rows and flowers and becoming part of the story of this place.

While peach season ended sooner than we expected this year, the support from our community never slowed down. We are deeply thankful for every visit, every kind word, every social media share, and every bit of encouragement you’ve given us along the way.

Thank you for helping us keep this farm going and for being part of another wonderful season.

We’ll be quiet for a little while, but come March, start keeping an eye on our page. That’s usually when we begin sharing updates for the new season. We look forward to welcoming you back to the farm next year.

Until then, thank you for an amazing season.

4:00 PM - 7:00 PM

Saturday, June 13 and Sunday, June 14
9:00 AM – 2:00 PM

Blackberries – $5/lb

What a day!

We appreciate everyone who spent part of their Saturday with us. It was one of our busiest blackberry days of the season, and we’re grateful for every family, friend, and berry picker who came out to the farm.

Good news: there are still plenty of blackberries to pick tomorrow. We'll also have blueberries and beautiful flowers ready for you to pick as well as fresh, already picked, produce.

We’ll be open Sunday, June 8, from 9 AM–2 PM.

After we close tomorrow, we’ll evaluate the fields and post our hours for the upcoming week.

We hope to see you at the farm!

One more from the field before we call it a night.

We have seeded watermelons (while they last), just like the ones you remember from when you were a kid. The kind that leave sticky watermelon juice running down your arms and make you consider an impromptu seed-spitting contest.

Picked fresh today and ready to head home with you.

Summer doesn’t last forever, but a good watermelon sure helps.

**News from the field**

The farmers have been busy getting things ready for the weekend and thought we’d share a few photos from around the farm today.

The fields have dried out nicely, the weather forecast is looking promising, and there’s plenty to pick. The blueberries are loaded, the blackberries are loaded, and the sunflowers are looking beautiful.

We’ll be open Saturday, June 6 and Sunday, June 7 from 9:00 AM – 2:00 PM.

We’ll also have fresh picked produce grown right here at the farm.

Looks like it’s shaping up to be a beautiful weekend. We hope to see you at the farm!

Wet Hammock Farm will be closed Wednesday, June 3rd.

We’re giving the fields a little extra time to dry and the berries a little extra time to ripen after the recent weather.

We plan to reopen Saturday, June 6th and Sunday, June 7th from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., weather and crop permitting.

Thank you for your patience and support. Taking a little extra time now helps us provide a better picking experience when everyone returns to the field.

We look forward to seeing you this weekend!

Thank you all for another wonderful weekend at Wet Hammock Farm!

We wanted to let everyone know that we will NOT be open on Wednesday, June 3rd.

The recent rain has left the fields very wet, and we’re taking a few days to let the ground dry out and give the blueberries and blackberries a little more time to ripen. We expect this extra time to result in even better picking when we reopen this weekend

We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work with the weather and the crops to provide the best possible picking experience.

We currently expect to reopen:

Saturday, June 6, 9:00 a.m.–2:00 p.m.
Sunday, June 7, 9:00 a.m.–2:00 p.m.

We are also hopeful that flower picking will be available this weekend. As always, flower availability depends on weather and field conditions, but we are keeping our fingers crossed and look forward to welcoming everyone back to the flower field.

Blackberries – $5 per pound
Blueberries – $4 per pound
Flowers – $10 per cup (we provide the cup and clippers)

As always, please check our page before visiting for the latest updates on weather, field conditions, and available picking dates.

We look forward to seeing everyone and sharing another weekend of Wet Hammock grown produce, grown and picked by our family.

**Update for Sunday May 31, 2026**

We will be open tomorrow, Sunday, May 31st from 9:00 AM to 2:00 PM, weather allowing, for U-Pick blueberries and blackberries.

A quick update on conditions: blueberry picking is looking very good, but blackberry picking may be a little light tomorrow as we are between flushes. We expect plenty more blackberries and blueberries to be available in the coming weeks.

Due to muddy conditions in the flower fields, there will be no flower picking this weekend. We want to give the area time to dry out and avoid damage to the fields.

We appreciate everyone's support and look forward to seeing you at the farm tomorrow.

**UPDATE FROM THE FIELD PLEASE READ**

Good morning, friends!

We got more rain overnight, and while we’re grateful for every drop, it did leave us with some very muddy conditions this morning. We know many of you have been looking forward to flower picking, and we’re sorry to say the flower field won’t be open today or tomorrow.

The good news? The blueberries and blackberries are looking great, and we have fresh-picked cantaloupes ready to head home with you.

Thank you for your patience and understanding as we let the fields recover. Farming keeps us humble, and sometimes Mother Nature gets the final vote. We appreciate all of you and hope you’ll come spend a little time on the farm with us today.

See you soon!

**Important Crop Update for Saturday, May 30th**

We’ll be open tomorrow morning starting at 9am with blackberries and blueberries ready for picking!

The flowers, however, are a little touch and go at the moment. We’re expecting rain overnight and won’t know exactly what the field looks like until morning.

**If flowers are your main reason for visiting, please check our page before heading out for the latest update.**

The berries are looking great and should be well worth the trip.

Thank you all for supporting our little farm. We appreciate every visit and can’t wait to see everyone tomorrow.
