JULY 27th OPEN AT 8am to 1pm!
| We are OPEN Saturday day JULY 27th! 8am to 1pm. Blueberry Bonanza @ DYPBF Happy Wednesday! This is your friendly reminder that we will be open tomorrow, Thursday, July 25th & Saturday, July 27th from 8 AM – 1 PM. This summer has been one of the best seasons in decades for picking berries. So hurry out to Dr. Young’s Pond Berry Farm ASAP and get some sweet, delicious blueberries while you still can. They are exceptionally plump and plentiful right now, so it is the prime time to come out and pick! Plus, we will have some fresh figs for sale this week as well. Blueberry Bonanza Sales: You Pick: Gallons have been the star of the season this year, so we have decided to keep our gallon sales going. You can pick 1 gallon for $20 or if you’re feeling gallant, you can pick 5 gallons for $80! WOW – that’s like getting 2 whole gallons of berries for free compared to the regular price… at this point, we are practically giving them away! Pre-picked: Our pre-picked blueberries have been hand-collected and selected for perfection by our expert pickers. You know, they are those passionately picky people who are positively patient and polite while they purposefully pluck and package the premium presale products from the plentiful plants that are potent with plump produce! Can you say that five times fast? Either way, now you get an extra 10% off for all of their efforts, PLUS you won’t have to hunt for berries in the heat! That’s a win-win for everyone! 1 gallon is $27, 2 gallons are $49, and 4 gallons are $90! Frozen: Frozen berries are the perfect ingredients for making jams and smoothies… Also, frozen berries are great for snacking and they will cool you down on these hot summer days! We have frozen blueberries available in 1 gallon for $25, 2 gallons for $45, and 5 gallons for $100! WOW – another great way to score some free berries! No matter which way you pick ’em, our berries are the G.O.A.T! You just cannot find berries quite like ours anywhere else around here! We have the best berries and the best deals around, hands down!   Blackberries and raspberries are done for the season. Don’t let that get you down because as the seasons change, the produce that is available changes as well… Since it is the middle of the summer now, the persimmons are starting to come in and they will be available for pick-up once they are ripe and ready later this Fall. Stay tuned in to our newsletters and Facebook page for more information.    Do you like cute and cuddly farm animals? We know we do – that’s why we have goats, chickens, turkeys, and emus! Come take a gander at all of our farm animals when you come to visit. If you want to get up close and personal or feed some of the animals, our petting pen is just $5/person! “Kids” of all ages are sure to be “emu”-sed by all of our farm animals! If you have not done so already, be sure to check out our website and like, share, and follow us on Facebook too! We truly enjoy sharing our farm with all of y’all! Whether you have been coming out here for a long time or we are meeting for the first time, we appreciate it berry much when you come to visit us! Be sure to tell all of your friends, family, neighbors, co-workers, and everyone else for that matter, to come out and join us for some fun on the farm! |
The Fields!
We’ve got even more fields of berries!
GOATS!!!
When our Dr Young set up the farm, he wanted goats. Throughout the years the goats, traditionally French Alpine goats, have provided a great introduction to farm animals for countless children and adults. When we moved the sales counter away from the barn, the goat interaction dwindled. We kept hearing that our visitors missed seeing the goats. And we missed the goats.
So we got more goats! For the first time we will be having a more interactive experience as well. We will be having a petting zoo with our various goats that are perfectly sized to interact with.
WE DO NOT ALLOW DOGS OR PETS
We do NOT allow any dogs or pets on the farm, not even just to walk in the parking lot. We have small goats that will be walking around the farm. So no matter how sweet your dog might be, the safety of our goats comes first!
A Note on Spray
We do not spray chemicals on our berries. We use a natural organic product that is an insecticide, miticide, fungicide and nematicide. We have been using this product for about 4 years and although it is quite expensive, we think that its safety makes it worthwhile. (Personally, we do not wash our berries before we eat them.) We hope you like the berries as much as we do. Aside from being extremely healthful, they sure taste great!
PICKING CUPS
Every year people ask to use a picking cup. We finally solved the problem! We’ve created a picking cup that for just $5 you can leave the field with it full of berries as well as your bucket! Plus you get to have a pretty cup in the winter.
