Last year hubby and I got to Beck Brothers Blueberries U-Pick at the end of the growing season,

so it took much longer to fill up our buckets. Live and Learn! Right now, it is during the Peak Season, so when my family got to the Beck Brothers Blueberry Farm on Friday (May 20, 2016) around 4:00 pm, not only did it take much less time to fill up our buckets, these blueberries are deliciously sweet and tasty!

In case you’re interested, it is: 6 oz pint at $3, 3lb at $10, and 6lb at $15.

I also saw plenty of ripened blueberries on the ground! The farm is open from 9:00 am-5:00 pm 7 days a week during picking season. Beck Brothers Blueberry Farm will be open through end of May. They will continue to open if there will still be berries available to be picked.  If you want to ascertain their opening hours, be sure to call 407-656-4353 ahead for confirmation.

Did you know that blueberries are loaded with powerful antioxidant, including anthocyanine and various phytochemicals (some of which can cross the blood-brain barrier and exert protective effects on the brain. Some studies have found that blueberries helped to improve memory of older adults and lowered their blood pressure and markers of oxidzed LDL cholesterol level. Check out our previous post on Beck Brothers Blueberries.

Come out to pick your blueberries! It’s a great way to have family outing, spend a friendly afternoon with your pal or date….You might see some of your neighbors doing the same!
