At least half-a-dozen farms in the Memphis area offer pick-your-own blueberries. The season is a little late this year because of our cool spring, but farmers expect berries to be plentiful at least through the end of July. Some years, blueberries last until mid-August.
Be sure to call ahead to check availability. (A list of farms, addresses, and phone numbers follows.) On the day I checked, only three out of the six had berries. Availability changes almost daily due to weather and how many people show up to pick. I think the birds and squirrels have something to do with it to, but that’s just a guess.
