U-Pick

PLEASE NOTE: UPick for the 2024 season will be starting mid-June. Keep an eye out for updates as we get closer. Please read all the important information below before coming up to the farm to ensure the best possible experience!

Welcome to the blueberry farm! We grow ’em, you pick ’em! You will be able to pick your own, or purchase pre-harvested blueberries (by the pound). The fruit is AMAZING this year, and after a wet and wild winter and spring, we’re all really ready to dive in!

Read the rules, get your coolers ready to get the blueberries back home, and come prepared to enjoy the peaceful mountain mornings on the farm. Picking hours will be posted here.

Hours:

Hours will be posted as we get closer to harvest.

Rules:

  • Walk-ins welcome during open hours, other times by appointment only.
  • Get directions (see below).
  • We love pets, but please leave yours home – for food safety and the health of the animals, we cannot permit outside pets on the farm. Due to the heat, please do not expect to leave your animals in your vehicle.
  • No smoking or fire of any kind.
  • Wear closed-toe shoes, sunscreen, and hats – we have many potential hazards and are far from medical assistance.
  • Bring lots of water and stay hydrated.
  • Kids are welcome but must be supervised closely. This is a working farm which is a lot different than a playground.

We’ll provide lined buckets for your picking pleasure. The cost is $6/lb. The liners lift out for you to conveniently transport your gems home. Please bring cash, small bills welcome. We won’t have access to credit card transactions this week.

All ages are welcome, but please remember that this is a working farm, and there are natural hazards. We encourage families with young children to closely supervise them while visiting, and to not leave them unattended.

Directions:

Hwy 32 E to Forest Ranch (16 miles). Turn right on Schott Road (about 1 mile past the “town”). Follow Schott Road 3 1/2 miles (windy mountain road, down to the creek and back up the other side to Doe Mill Ridge). When Schott Road ends at the Doe Mill Y, stay straight on Doe Mill Road (do not go left/up on Doe Mill). In one mile, pass Summerplace Road and take the 1st driveway on the right – 12767 Doe Mill Road (look for signs directing visitors). Turn into driveway and stop at the check-in station for parking instructions.

Cell coverage is spotty in the canyon, but there is a Verizon tower in Forest Ranch, and there are places with limited signal.

Please use caution on the drive in, regardless of the isolated feel, there are a surprising number of vehicles that travel here! Slow down on blind corners and gravel, and enjoy the journey!
