Blueberries are an important New Jersey crop, and a pick-your-own visit can be a memorable summer outing. Farms set their own opening dates and picking conditions, which depend on the weather and the crop.
Call or check the farm’s current update before driving out. Ask about reservations, containers, payment, and field conditions; wear sun protection and comfortable shoes. Pick ripe berries gently, and refrigerate them after the trip.
The Jersey Fresh directory can help locate farms and markets. Explore more in our New Jersey guide.
