  Blueberry season has arrived! We are going to open on Friday 4th December at 8.30am until mid-afternoon. The blueberries are looking great and taste even better! We have had to put the price up by $1 to $16 per kilo due to increased water charges, including a $4,000 water monitoring valve. That is a lot of blueberries to sell! We now have an Eftpos machine but you can still pay in cash if you prefer. No pay wave or credit cards please. If you can't make it on Friday, we are planning to be open on Sunday too. Looks like rain on Saturday morning this weekend. Keep checking the Blueberry Grove page as we will let you know opening hours depending on weather and blueberry ripening. Please be respectful of our neighbours and park in the carpark, if possible. We are looking forward to seeing you all.

We will be opening tomorrow Thursday 9th January at 8.30. However only C Block has berries ready for picking so supply will be limited. The blueberries are lovely and sweet though. We won't be open after Thursday until we have consistent sunny days to ripen the berries, so no picking this weekend.

Tuesday 7th January picking closed

Sorry but we are closing early today as berries picked out with a really busy morning. The strong winds over the past few days have meant we have lost berries and wires have come down on Block C, so couldn't open this block today. Hopefully will have fixed in next couple of days so can re-open Block C. We will give you an update tomorrow on the next pick day so please check before you come.
