Summer Black Raspberries and Blueberries

A great family outing for the summer.  Pick your own blueberries and black raspberries are available in early July.  Call for availability.  You'll love the delicious taste of fresh berries.  Pick them for shortcake, pies, jams and jellies or put fresh berries on your cereal.  Come and enjoy the sunshine - we're sure you'll enjoy the berries!

Fall Berry Picking Season

In mid August, September, and possibly even into the first week of October, the second crop of the red raspberries and gold raspberries are ready. These deliciously sweet berries are ideal for jams, jellies, pies, and desserts. These raspberries are great just for eating.

The gold raspberries are similar in taste to the red raspberries. The bright, contrasting color of the two make an appealing mix for your desserts.

Reillys Summer Seat Farm currently has an acre of raspberries, with crops in spring and fall. Berry picking has become a family favorite.

Fall Berry Picking runs through September.

Picking berries is an ideal activity for the entire family. We provide the containers, so you need no special preparation.

Red and gold raspberries do have thorns. Most of the raspberries are found on the outside edges of the plant, so you do not need special clothing to avoid scratches. The rows between the raspberry bushes are mowed and you can move around easily.
