Wednesday August 19, 2020. Parkland Berry Farm has closed for the season. There is only a scant berry left and not enough left to ripen to make picking worthwhile.
Thanks to all the customers who made 2020 such a great year! Parkland looks forward to seeing you next year.
Sunday morning, August 16, 2020. There are still blueberries to pick. There is a good amount of what is pictured - a light pick of ripe berries among clusters of immature berries yet to ripen. Reasonable picking for late in the season if you want a quart or two.
Yes, we are still picking blueberries at Parkland Berry Farm! We are past peak beginning our 5th week, but there are lots of great berries to pick. 'Blueberry Meadow ' is closed for the season. Late producing varieties in 'Blueberry Forest' are still yielding nicely pickable quantities of delicious berries. There will be blueberries available for several weeks from now, but picking will become increasingly thin.
Friday, July 31, still going strong at Parkland Berry Farm. Lots of berries in "Blueberry Meadow " as it moves past peak. Tons of blueberries still available in the "Blueberry Forest" block, as the late season varieties are now at peak.

Blueberry picking continues today, Sunday July 12, at Parkland Berry Farm. Lots of great easy to pick berries available now.
U-picking will begin Saturday July 11.
There's a few blue berries showing up and this week's warm weather should increase ripening. Strong picking should continue up to 4 weeks.
Please abide by social distancing guidelines and help Parkland out by:
* only handle quart containers you use
* there will be picking boxes, but please hang them on the "to be cleaned" hooks after use. To help with the one use between cleaning policy the number of picking boxes has been more than doubled.
The crop is looking great this year! Hope to see you soon.
Beautiful blueberry clusters every where you look at Parkland Berry Farm. Should be easy picking this year, which is expected to start around the middle of July. Watch for updates.
All these blossoms (in acre #2) bodes well for a nice blueberry crop in the middle of July. Reminder: Parkland has blueberries only.
Bumblebees are busy pollinating the sea of blueberry flowers now blooming. These Coville blueberries should be ready for picking in 2 months.
Thin pickings. There are a few berries left but fewer and farther between, suitable to get a quart or enough for a pie with a little extra time.
Parkland will be closed in about a week.
Wednesday August 7 and the blueberry picking at Parkland is still going strong. The lower block has thin pickings while the top block has a plentiful supply.
Lots of large, easy to pick blueberries on hand right now. These are pics from the lower berry block.
Were open to pick and there are lots of great blueberries ready now (and still to come). Maple syrup will also be available on the stand.
Picking is underway and there are lots of large beautifully ripe blueberries in the lower block.
Parkland will be open for picking beginning Monday, July 15. The very first berries are beginning to ripen.
Picking will include the lower block which has been too poorly maintained to pick the last several years. The bushes are generally shorter and smaller than the top block, but will have plenty if nice berries (photos).
And for you Parkland veterans, just want to show the newly graded entrance road. It's a little rocky but gone are the big ruts and washouts caused by heavy rainstorms over the last several years.
Here's a couple picking tips for when we open on Monday, July 15:
-pick only totally blue ripe berries;
-check to make sure there is no red on the back of the berry, "redbacks" are not as sweet as fully ripe berries;
-a picked blueberry will stay exactly as you picked it, it will not ripen further after picking;
-the best way to pick a blueberry is to 'roll ' it off the stem with your thumb, this gets berries off the stem the easiest while preventing damage to the remaining berries in the cluster;
-use the picking boxes; picking hands free is the easiest and fastest way to pick.
One last reminder:
Parkland has blueberries only.
No strawberries. No raspberries.
Blueberries are developing nicely! Still a couple weeks to go. The access road has been regraded, and with a little raking, will be in fine shape for the picking season.
To answer some questions:
Parkland only has blueberries;
Parkland does not do messenger. Please post questions in the comment section.
There's gonna be some blueberry canyons this year. The bushes have been enjoying the mix of sun and rain, so many branches are drooping with the weight of all the berries.
Picking should begin in 3 weeks- the second week in July.
Blueberries are forming nicely. We should be picking in a month, by the second week in July.
Blue crop blueberries blooming nicely. Let's hope all those flowers become pickable berries! These should be ripe by the 3rd week in July.
Yesterday the first blueberry flowers started blooming and the first pollinators showed up. If everything proceeds normally we will have blueberries to pick in about 2 months.
Parkland has blueberries ready for picking. Everything you need is at the Welcome Stand: all berries are sold by the quart, $4/qt; you can pick at any time. We do not have raspberries or strawberries.
Sorry, Parkland does not have messenger working, so post any questions here in the comment section.
Berries are ready to pick, (with many more to come later), the Welcome Station is all prepped, and the road signs have been repainted to help you find Parkland Berry Farm, which is open for picking today July 14, 2018.
Berries are progressing nicely this season. In spite of a very cold April, they are now on a normal schedule and should be ready the second week of July.
