Willowthorne

“What a beautiful tranquil picturesque blueberry orchard. There are magnificent weeping willows and the sounds of birds singing … I simply love this place! Blueberries are amazing and the boughs of the bushes hang low with berries warmed by the sun. I have many many memories walking the fields with my daughters in times past….no phones no tv no video games just laughter and time shared together. there is blueberry honey, and fresh eggs too! My daughters are gone now but I marvel , as I watch the children laughing and picking berries together with their Dads and Moms how that something so simple as this will be one of their fondest childhood memories. Now , I always freeze a cup or two of berries that I pick as a special treat for my Daughters so that I can prepare blueberry muffins or blueberry pancakes when we brunch together. There is truly more than blueberries here❤️”

“My family and I went today and the eight of us had a blast! Most of the bushes were picked, but there was enough for each of us to get a pound of blueberries. We also got garlic bulbs and honey. Just a great way to spend an hour or two outdoors! Also the staff and owners are super friendly and kind. Lastly, the blueberries are delicious!”

“We had the most wonderful time stopping a very short distance off of the freeway to pick our own berries. They have blueberry flower honey, local art, jams and BBQ sauces all home made right there. The people few so kind and welcoming that we can’t wait to stop again when we drive by. What a gem. A hidden treasure.”

“Amazing place! Ripe blueberries galore; big & sweet. We arrived around 9am on Saturday, July 9th and by 11am, the three of us were leaving with huge smiles and about 16 lb buckets of delish blueberries each. Definitely will visit again!!! 😊”

“I found this little hidden gem when looking for a place to go blueberry picking. Willowthorne has to be one of the coolest places to take your little ones to. I highly recommend, it was such a fun family outing!! Thank you Mike!!”

“Willowthorne is truly a hidden gem. Great place to stroll and pick and breathe easy. Great people! And convenient location. PS. AND THE HONEY!”

“We enjoyed our visit, tons of sweet blueberries, relaxing time, friendly and welcoming hosts.”

“A really beautiful private residence where the owners maintain blueberry bushes in their backyard garden - also has a tranquil lake where you can picnic. The owners are all super friendly and welcoming, there were even tables where they were selling harvested honey, snacks and drinks. Only advice would be for the owners to update the website and let people know when the blueberries are almost out. We went last weekend and it took quite some time for us to find enough blueberries to fill half of our basket. Tip for others is to go early in the season, like as soon as they open for blueberry picking! Apparently there was a group of ladies that came last weekend with gallon sized buckets and picked like 20 pounds of berries in giant buckets and then came back for second round of picking… so by the time we got there we only had small/unripe leftover blueberries to pick. Maybe there needs to be a limit on how much one can pick… But moral of the story is TO GET THERE EARLY WHEN THE SEASON BEGINS!”
