This U-Pick Blueberry Farm In South Carolina Is All You Ever Dreamed Of And More
Some people may remember that nasty cold blast of winter that hit South Carolina back in March of this year. Well that little cold snap nearly killed all of the blueberries in South Carolina. Most u-pick farms are feeling the pains of a smaller crop for 2017. Sadly, some aren’t even open for U-pick this season. And for the ones that are open, the blueberries are a little less abundant.
There’s a u-pick field in the midlands though, that managed to save much of their crop. And since South Carolina blueberries are few and far between this year, this u-pick farm is all you ever dreamed of.
Families in Chapin and beyond have been filling their blueberry bags, buckets and baskets season after season; undoubtedly sampling a few of the delectable picks as they go.
In this rare blueberryless season, Southern Blues dishes up the opportunity to score on all fronts - even in a season where there's a little less fruit to go around.
You'll find this magical blueberry patch inside the Chapin city limits. Due to the limited supply this year the u-pick days are limited. The best place to keep up with the dates that are open and the status of the berries (ripe vs not ripe) is on their Facebook page. According to a recent post, their next u-pick day is set for Thursday, July 13, 2017.
