Here is a picture of our MOST ripe section of the patch from Sunday, July 15th.  Still less than 50% ripe.  Slower ripening varieties are obviously further behind.  We have not opened before August in the last 7 years but this year might be an exception.  The early start to the season, coupled with a hot summer has us thinking (actually hoping) of a late July opening.  We always open on a Saturday and we anticipate opening on the 4th of August and then remaining open the entire month.  We will keep monitoring the progress and will surely open sooner (the absolute soonest would be July 28th) if the ripening rate picks up.  Blueberries ripen slow, so please be patient.  Everything will remain the same as previous years: self serve ($2/lb), open 7 days, daylight hours, bring your own containers or purchase ours at cost.
