About the Farm
Background
Founded in 2011, this family-owned and operated blueberry farm has established itself in the fertile valleys along the Umpqua River in Oregon. Known for its organic blueberries, the farm operates two locations: a USDA certified organic farm in Elkton and a conventional farm in Drain.
Practices
The Elkton farm adheres to USDA organic standards, ensuring that no synthetic pesticides or fertilizers are used in the cultivation of their blueberries. The farm is also Global GAP certified, emphasizing good agricultural practices. The conventional farm in Drain follows traditional farming methods while still focusing on quality and safety.
The Rest
Visitors can enjoy U-pick blueberries from June to August, with pre-picked and frozen options also available. Both farms are currently closed for the 2023 season, and frozen berries are sold out. The Elkton farm offers organic blueberries, while the Drain farm provides conventional varieties. Customers are encouraged to bring their own containers for berry picking.
