Doing an offseason photo dump, I'll try and figure out how to caption each picture.

Looks like we'll be in the homecoming parade again this year, make sure to look for us on Friday! We will be in the back again. Nan is 3 for 3 procrastinating on sign ups ๐Ÿ˜‚

We hope everyone is having a good start to the school year, I just can't believe we're already almost to October! There's lots of work to be done and I love getting to it, and if it weren't for you all this wouldn't be a labor of love. See you all soon!

We stopped by Nanโ€™s Berry Farm for a few very important interviewsโ€ฆ but the animals had other things on their agenda. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ

The real interview is coming soon, so keep an eye out! ๐Ÿ‘€

Nanโ€™s Berry Farm is currently in their off season, but this beautiful property is a great place to visit in June and July during blueberry season! ๐Ÿซ

I hope everyone's summer has been going well! I've been irrigating my blackberries like mad throughout this summer heat. What's interesting is seeing the few really hot, 100 degree days, decimate the beetles here. It seems their range is from the 80s to somewhere around mid 90s. After around 95 degree mark with direct sunlight, they seem to hit a wall. They were a little heavier than last year, but those really hot days put a full stop to their infestation for me.

With that said, the blackberries are looking MUCH better for next year's crop. Now I just need to get in there and tame them ๐Ÿ˜†

You all, thank you so much for such a wonderful year! I unfortunately have to close shop, we just don't have enough blackberries that can ripen to necessitate a season...plus this year's beetle pressure is a little heavier than last. It seems their presence is felt everywhere a bit more this year. On the beetles, I'm keeping up with the trapping and able to manage through them. This makes me confident for whenever the later season blackberries finally mature within the next few years.

I will keep posting photos and updates throughout the offseason, farm life never ends out here. We hope you all have a wonderful Summer and we send every bit of love to you all. Send us a wave when we see you out in the wild!

We are picked clean of ripe blackberries for now. I'm going to keep the farm closed for a few days to allow for the remaining Natchez and Arapahos to fully ripen up for a last push on the season. The bushes that I do have are early season, and they tend to have half or more of their crop picked by the time blueberry season is over. Here in a few seasons, we should have enough Triple Crown to have a decent stand alone blackberry season. Every year is definitely an improvement, and this year is no different.

I'll make a post here in the next few days underlying the end plan for this year. It's been an honor to grow your fruit, and it's been an even bigger pleasure meeting you all!

Our natchez and arapahos (after proper irrigation) are still throwing good numbers out. They're inside and a little lower in the bushes, but there are good numbers. I went from 3 to 6 appointments and opened up tomorrow, Tuesday, for reservations. Our triple crown row is putting out some of the most delicious blackberries I've ever had, I can't wait for the 6 other rows to mature!

I do ask that if you're looking for larger quantities, like 15lbs or more, shoot me a message. I'd like to make sure we can get you those berries without clearing out the bushes for our appointments.

Blackberries! I have posted some open spots, starting with 3 a day Tomorrow Monday and Wednesday. 8, 9, and 10 am spots. I'm going to wait to add more, I'd like to see the quantity amount come out first with the appointments currently in place. Irrigating was the key, these berries are looking much better!

I'm sorry for the short notice, but I do have decent blackberries that are ready for picking. I'll be out here taking people until noon or until we run out if you're wanting blackberries to make that cobbler for tomorrow!
Two days ago I picked the ugly ones for jam and started irrigating, it has made a difference already. I totally forgot tomorrow is the 4th, I easily lose track of days out here, but I won't be open tomorrow. I'll make sure to keep the progress posted for today in the comments. I'm not doing the appointment reservation for today
