We invite you out for a day of family fun and delicious pick-your-own blueberries!
Start a healthy family tradition to keep you on this side of the grass!
Welcome to Blueberried Alive blueberry farm! This year's crop is shaping up to be our best season ever, so come out for a relaxing day in the country and a bountiful supply of fresh, delicious blueberries.
On our farm, we grow nine carefully selected cultivars. They ripen in roughly the following order, with plenty of overlap — giving us a long season from late June through mid-August:
For those of you new to picking: a berry is ripe when it is completely blue. They start hard and green, then swell and turn pink, then blue — turning blue last around the stem. A partly pink berry is still safe to eat, but it will likely be somewhat sour. Every cultivar has its own taste and texture, and all are perfectly safe to eat right off the bush — no washing required.
Our berries are sold by the pound. If you're used to buying pints at the store, a stingy store pint is about 0.6 lbs (our heaped farmers-market pints are closer to 0.8 lbs).
We provide buckets, but you're welcome to bring your own. If using your own container, let us weigh it ahead of time so we can subtract that weight at checkout. Our buckets hold 10–12 lbs when full, depending on your definition of "full."
Take a look at what you can expect at the farm.
We only spray our plants with safe, certified organic products. This ensures the health of you and the environment! Please give us a call if you'd like to learn more.
Unfortunately, many birds love blueberries and are hard to dissuade. We do our best to deter them with audio of bird distress and hawk cries, fake hawks, shiny pinwheels, and scarecrows — the most humane methods we've found.
Beautiful Loudonville, Ohio is waiting for you!
Opening Tuesday, June 23rd.
This year's crop is looking especially good! For more information, call Martin at 330-221-7764.
We are located at 532 County Road 2302, Loudonville, OH 44842. There are two driveways close together — ours is the longer of the two. Take it past the barn entrance and park anywhere in the grass. Further parking is available between the North and South patches, as long as it's not too wet. Consult our map for illustration.
Our stand is a blue and white tent, where you can get buckets, check out, and talk to the staff. The portajon is near the stand.
The neighbors' driveway is shorter and terminates at a blue house — resist the urge to go there.
Leave your address with us, and we'll send you a postcard at the start of next season.
