Well with all the rain, storms and late freeze we had it is hard to tell what kind of season it will be. Stay tuned as we update the website later.

 

We will all be a little busy the next few weeks. I am getting married on Saturday, May 16th. God has blessed me with a wonderful man! We are excited to see what God has in store for all of us.

 

If blueberries decide to bless us this year, my in laws will do the drive in business and I will still handle all the pre-picked orders.

The blueberries are looking good. They are green but will now transform over the next few weeks to sweet delicious blueberries. We are blessed once again.

 

Please note that all drive in business will be handled from 490 Dorsey Road which is down the drive from my old house. There will be signs directing you.

 

My family and I are moving to McDonough the weekend of 5/30. I got married 5/16/09 to a wonderful man. Our family will handle all the pre-picked orders and my in laws will handle the drive in (pick your own) business.

 

Any questions please call me at 770-906-7685

 

Thanks.

Well I saw the berries today and they are turning slowly. It may be a couple of weeks before the berries are ready. No one really knows. It really depends on the weather and we can not control that, can we? I will update this website as I know more.

Well we went to visit the berries yesterday and they are still greenish-white. Looks like it will be another couple of weeks. Continue to check this website for updates. Thanks.

Can not believe July is here and no berries. Keep checking with us on the availability. Can not believe I have to go back to work in 4 weeks and the boys go back to school in 5 weeks. YUCK!

 

Just checked on the berries and it does not look good. I will check again next week. We really need some rain.

Well folks, I pray you all had a Happy 4th-it does not look like we will have any berries this year. Check back with us next year. God Bless each of you.
