“This blueberry farm has become a beloved family tradition. Their blueberries are the best with the u-pick the most affordable option. They provide pails to borrow for u-pick; return at checkout. Plan to bring cash or pay an additional 5% for credit card payment. Recommend bringing a container of choice to transfer berries from their borrowed pail to transport home. Bags are available, however, these are not ideal if you pick lots of berries like my family does. Their barn has additional wares- ice cream, flowers, crafts, and other odds and ends. Such a quaint blueberry farm!”

“I have visited all of the blueberry patches in the Great Lakes Bay Region over my decades growing up and settling in this area. Backwoods Blueberries is the best run, best berries, best peripheral products, and best atmosphere of all of them. I consistently have good picking there. My only critique is that they need to be more up on Facebook posts to get and keep people engaged at the optimal times.”
