We are sold out of bushes for spring. Now taking orders for fall plant sales.
Our PYO is now closed for the season.
    Well here we are again. It's spring on the farm or almost.
    I don't know about anybody else but i'm about tired of all this snow. I try and plan for things to get done on the off months and then about all i've been seeing is snow. Eventually I just go ahead out and work through the snow .
  We got all the plants that were in need of replacing taken care of and all the mulching is done.
   Looks like it will be another good year for us if we can manage to get everything picked. We will be adding a new section into the picking routine. These bushes will be Northlands. They are a medium sized berry with good flavor.
   If anyone has any questions feel free to give us a call. We can usually be reached in the evenings and through the day on the weekends.
   Thanks for stopping by.
