BLUEBERRY FARM NEAR ME: GEORGIA EDITION

Did you know that Georgia is one of the leading states in the United States for growing blueberries? It’s true! Some websites even list Georgia as #1! (Michigan and Washington State are up there too.)

What we’re saying is…Georgia’s got a lot of blueberries.

Generally speaking, the best time to go blueberry picking in Georgia is mid-June through early August, but weather has a lot to do with when berries are ripe enough to pick. You’ll find that some of the blueberry farms in south Georgia open earlier…think mid-April.

Your best bet is to call the blueberry farm or check their Facebook pages before you head out, to ensure picking conditions are optimal and the patch is open.
