This is not a secret, or something we try to hide. Our pre-picked blueberries are purchased, picked up (by our employees or family) and driven home the day they are picked in either Arkansas (early summer) or Michigan (late summer). They are kept cool and fresh, and we make regular, weekly, sometimes twice weekly, trips to ensure you get top quality blueberries. However, it is a common misconception that you are not supporting our farm when you buy blueberries that are picked in Michigan or Arkansas, this is not the case. In our early years, the pre-picked were from our farm. However, now, we simply do not have enough acreage to support both the u-pick and we-pick demand, so we must supplement from Michigan and Arkansas wholesale growers. But this is still supporting our farm!. -
