Do I really have to pay for a membership? I only want a few berries.
Yes. We understand that not everyone feels it is worth the money to join as a member. That is the only way we sell our u-pick berries.

What about dogs? Can I bring my dog?
We like dogs. We named our farm after a dog. (Good old Friday. Rest in peace, gf.) And we bring our current blue dog, Petey, down to the field with us. He's getting older, so he will probably bark at you. If you choose to bring your (polite) dog and to take him/her out of your vehicle, please have the dog on a short leash and keep him/her with you at all times. No elimination in the blueberry fields and obviously, be prepared and clean up any deposits your dog makes elsewhere on the farm.

Can't I pay with cash?
Please, no. Please pay with a personal check, by Paypal to berries@bluedogfarm.com or by Venmo to @Amy-Turner-245. Thank you.

What about kids? Can I bring my kids?

Our farm was a great place for raising our boys and we want you to bring your kids and have a great time. Sometimes kids get hot and tired and drift towards the shade of the tent. This is totally fine. Please just be aware that sometimes when unsupervised for too long, kids start kid-like behaviors that affect others negatively, like attempting to snack out of customers' boxes, draining the drinking water or using 7,984 dixie cups, throwing berries, and, well, you can imagine. Kids also have been known to start behaviors that affect others positively, like cleaning up the tent area and greeting customers and answering questions. So just stay clued into what your kids are up to and redirect or admire as the behavior suggests.

We provide buckets, boxes, handwashing, portapotty, drinking water, shade
Consider bringing your own containers or reusing. You may want sunscreen or a hat and sturdy shoes.

It's a farm. There are hazards.
Nothing crazy. Just be aware. There are cars coming in and out. (Slowly! right?) There are insects, occasionally stinging ones. There's uneven ground. Sometimes there's hot sun. There are a couple of creeks -- you can dip your toes, but make sure small children are attended.

Snacking as you pick
Of course! How else will you know what you like?

Wandering around

Yes! Feel free to wander around the farm. Bring a picnic, visit the creek, check out the pumpkin patch. Please don't go into the barns and also please don't proceed down the lane past the greenhouse (marked). We have a tenant farmer and that's her domain.
