PEAK THORNLESS BLACKBERRY picking season is here! 6-3-19

PEAK BLACKBERRY picking season is here for at least the next 2 weeks, but no promises after that. Pic was taken 6-3-19, and there are TONS of thornless blackberries ripe now. Season COULD last til late June through early July, all depending on how hot temps get. Too high and the unshaded berries get cooked on the vine, while those under leaves can still be ok, but that makes picking not nearly as fast and easy as it is now. Early Bird Special: Check in and have picking box specially stamped between 7:30 am and 9:00 am, save $1/lb if u pick at least 5 lbs. of blackberries. So berries in that box are priced $4/lb instead of regular price $5/lb. Farm admission $1/person; reusable picking box $2, (holds about 10 lbs). Open Tues thru Sun, 7:30 am-1:00 pm. (closed Mon.) Pickers must arrive by 12:30 pm and all check out by1:00 pm. Hurry in and pick while you can fill a 10# box in about 20 minutes! #nealsberryfarm #pickyourownflowers #pickyourowntomatoes #pickyourowncucumbers #pickyourownpeppers #pickyourownkale #upickokra #homegrownpeaches #homegrownnectarines
