* WE ARE COMPLETELY CHEMICAL FREE--no pesticides or weed killer and when fertilizing, we only use organic products.

TASTING ENCOURAGED as we have several different varieties within our approx. 900 bushes that can vary in flavor.

We supply buckets for picking and bags for take home--although many choose and are welcome to bring their own take home containers or boxes.

NO BACKPACKS, SHOULDER BAGS OR OTHER LARGER SIZE PURSES / BAGS PERMITTED IN THE PATCH

NO DOGS PLEASE -no exceptions -our own are often there with us

Pre-picked blueberries are generally available at the Blacksburg Farmers Market during our active season on most Sat. mornings and Wed . afternoons They do sell out quickly though, so come early.

----We have been active at the Blacksburg Farmers Market since 1998 and do not permit the resale of  our berries at this market.----

 Sorry, we do not offer pre-picked at the u-pick farm.

We have ample parking and do not require notice for groups coming out.

Porta-potty available

Gnats can be a nuisance at times--we always have bug spray on hand.

On days with persistent rain or drizzle--we will close--I have found the best indicator for current weather conditions is going to: www.weather.com and entering zip code 24128 or Newport, VA and then clicking on the radar map which will show what kind of conditions are heading our way over the next few hour
