MEET OUR FAMILY
We are a family run farm of 40 acres, established in 1987. We have been growing blackberries and blueberries for the past 25 years. We work hard to provide the best tasting fruit that can be grown in this area. You can see this effort in the plant's health, growth and production of extremely high quality fruit.
The entire family used to pitch in with commitment and pride during our "season". Children, Nathan and Sarah were instrumental in our day to day seasonal operation. They have grown, married and moved away, each working in the medical field. They help when they can. Now, James runs the entire pre and post harvest farming operation, picking and packing QC, material handling and product delivery. Dawn is in charge of marketing, running the Berry Cottage Farm Store & Garden, jam and sauce preparation and baking.
