Pick Your Own Blueberries This Summer in Northeastern PA
There’s nothing quite like the sweet, sun-kissed flavor of blueberries straight from the bush. Every summer, local farms across NEPA open their fields for pick-your-own blueberry season. It’s a timeless tradition that blends the simple joys of the countryside with the unbeatable taste of fresh fruit. While you can always grab a fresh carton from a local farmers’ market or produce stand, nothing beats the experience of visiting a local farm to pick your own blueberries.
From the rolling Endless Mountains to the vast Pocono Mountains and the Valley Communities between, NEPA’s scenic, U-Pick blueberry farms offer hours of fun for the whole family. And it just happens to end with a few baskets of nature’s sweetest reward.
Families, friends, and berry lovers of all ages are invited to spend the day wandering the rows, filling buckets, and enjoying the peaceful beauty of our local farms. Grab a sunhat and get ready to turn your fingers blue with summer’s juiciest tradition.
Note: Picking conditions vary from farm to farm depending on the weather. Always call ahead or check the farm’s social media for current hours and berry availability.
