Get ready for a festival the entire family will love: an event that celebrates all things blueberry related - and includes the official launch of the u-pick season at a large blueberry farm along the coast of South Carolina! We can't think of a sweeter way to unplug and spend the day!
It's time to pull out your favorite blueberry recipes because the bushes are full and you're certain to come home with enough to make whatever your heart and taste buds desire.
From muffins to pies, marmalade, pancakes, and more, the blueberry season is a favorite among bakers everywhere. Prepare for a summer in blueberry euphoria with all of the goodness that will come from your very own kitchen.
But not before you and the little ones celebrate the almighty blueberry itself at a one-day event that brings the family together in a festive atmosphere with food (lots of food), music, and scenic views on a gorgeous farm on which to take it all in.
Ever have a a blueberry lemonade? What about blueberry beer, or a blueberry bellini?
Blue Pearl Farms in McClellanville officially opens the U-Pick season with a Blueberry Festival you won't want to miss.
The festival takes place on Sunday, June 30, 2019 from 12 p.m. to 6 p.m.
We're already looking forward to the stacks and stacks of blueberry pancakes that will be available all day long.
Imagine the goodness of pancakes made with blueberries freshly plucked from the bush! Other food vendors will be preparing their own delectable blueberry delights, and the bakery at Blue Pearl Farms is sure to have some of their secret recipe items available as well. And don't pass up the chance for an ice cold cup of blueberry lemonade. Yum!
As if food isn't enough of an incentive, you can also take part in (or simply watch) the farm's attempt to break the World Record Blueberry Toss.
Is it just like it sounds? Or is there more involved in breaking the world record? You'll have to wait and see!
Bring lawn chairs or picnic blankets and create a base camp to enjoy the festival all day long. Live music from the legendary BB9s is on tap.
The progressive soul and rock blend of this band is perfect for an afternoon of frolicking in the blueberry fields and enjoying savory blueberry pancakes until you can't hold any more.
Blue Pearl Farms, located in McClellanville, is a scenic place to visit.
You can even purchase your own blueberry bush throughout the year from this expert blueberry grower. For some reason, blueberries just make everything better, don't they?
