Edit: WOW! We did not expect such an overwhelming response! We now have 100+ messages to go through, so we will sit down tonight and get back to you all. Thanks for
Your interest and kind comments!

It’s been a while… but we are finally sorting through and selling many of the items we have from our years running the farm. We have 15 years of collection on hand, including picnic tables, wheelbarrows, donut fryers, hayrides and many other assorted goodies.

We have made an itemized list and collected as many photos as possible. If you think you might be interested in any of these things for yourself or your business send us a message with a good email address and we’ll pass along all the details!

UPDATE: WE JUST FOUND OUT FROM NEW OWNER THAT THERE IS NOT ANY CHANDLER BLUEBERRIES LEFT FOR SALE. Sorry for thr misinformation! Lots and lots of all others available!

Great news! SHARE, SHARE, SHARE!! Tag your friends and share on your feed to help get the word out!

We will have Pre-Dug Blueberry, Raspberry and Blackberry Plants for sale starting this Saturday, March 18, 9am to 4pm!!

Duke, Toro, and Draper Blueberries $20
Giant Chandler NO LONGER AVAILABLE
Natchez, Ouachita and Triple Crown thornless Blackberries $4
Encore, Taylor, Joan J, and Josephine thornless Raspberries $4
U-dig strawberries will be available also 25/$10

Prices are a little more than before to help cover cost of digging and hauling out of the field. But...if you dug any last week you will know this is super cheap considering how hard they are to dig up!

Blueberry plants are quite tall/wide and blackberry and raspberry canes are pretty tall so please plan accordingly. You will want to bring a pickup or trailer. Plan to have your holes ready for planting right away as these are mostly bare-root plants.

CASH ONLY, PLEASE! You will want to bring large garbage bags to put roots into for the ride home to keep them nice and moist.

We will also have plants for sale next week also.
Monday (20th) to Friday (24th) from 3 to 6pm.

Thanks again for spreading the word! We are so happy you are all putting these into your yards to provide for your families. Wonderful to know that a little piece of Bill's is going home with all our incredible customers!

We still have room for a few more schools in our spring Signs of Spring educational tours! Tours last 1 hr 20 minutes, and have 4 rotations. Our lesson rotation covers all things bees, bloom and pollination with the kids and help them understand how important honey bees are for the production of fruit in our valley. Students also get a hayride rotation to search for Signs of Spring on the farm, a rotation to visit our farm animals and a donut and juice and playground rotation. The perfect amount of learning and hands on farm fun!
Open to public, private and home schools!
All the details can be found on our Educational Tours page ( www.billsberryfarm.com/activities/educational-tours/ ) of our website, as well as a form to submit to get your school on the schedule.
If you are a teacher or parent and you've enjoyed our tours please give a comment below and let others know what you love about our tours!

If you picked up blueberry plants feom us in the last couple weeks here is some info that will be helpful in getting your soil pH at the right level for healthy plants and great production!

Our acid planting mix is amazing for plants like those blueberries you snagged potted from us or bare root from a farmer like Bill's Berry Farm!
Blueberry’s love acidic soil, mix it 80/20with your existing soil so you can give those blueberries the best start you can!
