KEEP UP WITH BLUE BARN FARM

You can check back here or on our facebook page to see what's going on a Blue Barn Farm. We'll keep you up-to-date on what is available for sale and pick-your-own at the farm. We hope to see you soon!


Pick-Your-Own

The 2023 growing season is upon us!  Our Pick-Your-Own crops include strawberries, red raspberries, blueberries and black raspberries.  Strawberries begin in early June, Red Raspberries mid-late June, Blueberries the very end of June and Black Raspberries follow a week after blueberries, the first week of July.

Picking times are early in the day, 8am - 11am and late in the day 5pm-8pm. Picking days depend on the availability of berries which is greatly determined by the weather, so we ask that you call ahead (240-357-4087), check our Facebook page or find the Facebook posts streamed  below.

While at the farm, stop in at our farm market located in the lower part of our barn.  Find what's ripe and ready!  Your selections may include lettuces, greens, radishes, broccoli, and green onions early in the season.  Tomatoes, squashes, peppers and eggplant are samplings of what you'll find later in the season.  Stop in, there's always something fresh and don't forget the sweet corn!  We grow the best sweet corn! Sweet corn is available beginning mid-July at our on-farm market and the Farmers Markets we attend. Call ahead for availability and freezing/canning corn orders.

We accept cash, check or card, Paypal and Venmo. We also accept Farmers Market Nutrition Program (FMNP) vouchers.

Berry Picking Procedures

Drive through the cul-de-sac at the end of Flowing Spring Road and onto our private drive.  Follow the road to the front of the barn.  There will be signs showing you where to park.

Park in the designated areas and walk to the field entrance.

BRING YOUR OWN CONTAINERS. Your containers will be weighed upon entering the field. You will pick into your own containers and then pay for your berries by the pound.

Wash your hands before picking! There will be a wash station available at the entrance to the field.

Pick in the row and color coded area that you are assigned. We ask that family groups pick together.

We appreciate your cooperation and your understanding in following the guidelines.   We are doing our best to provide an enjoyable picking experience for all or our customers.  Thank you.
