What are we picking today

The Berry Patch is open today from 8 am to 5 pm.

 

On our picking scale of 1 to 10 (with 10 being the best picking) we are now at a 2.  We still have berries …just not as many as a week ago. If you need berries please come soon…by this Sat.  The best time for picking is between 8 AM and noon. Sugar content of the berries is higher in the morning, plus you can beat at least some of the heat (making it much more comfortable for the pickers). Kids and grandkids are welcome, put please No Pets in the orchard.

 

We no longer have pre picked berries.


Peaches

Lots of peaches now coming off. We are now picking a mix of different varieties of yellow fleshed freestone peaches. Our White Delite peaches are also coming off. The White Delite is a sweet, juicy low acid white fleshed peach. Makes a beautiful jelly. It is a semi-freestone. You can pre order peaches  for pickup…..a sackful (4-5 lbs.) or a box full (8-10lbs). Call or email us…be sure and leave your name and phone number.  Please call ahead for peach availability…..903-344-1132 or check our web site…….huebnerberrypatch.com

 

We are now offering #2 peaches. These peaches have minor insect damage, a few soft spots or irregular in shape. These are excellent for making jellies or cobblers.  The #2s are $1.50 per pound with a minimum order of a box (8-10 lbs.) These will be sold on a first come first serve basis…..call for availability.

 

We are out of plums at the current time.

 

Have farm fresh made peach , blackberry and Spooky Berry jelly…..also blackberry and peach syrup. Carole has also made a beautiful White Peach jelly. 

 

The farm will be open on Sat , July 3rd…..closed Sunday and Monday.


Have a Blessed Day
