About Cordes Berry Farm
Cordes Berry Farm planted our first blackberry field in the spring of 2013 and harvested our first crop the following year. Since then, we have learned so much about producing high-quality berries for our customers. We love being able to directly interact with you and hope you truly enjoy your experience on our farm.
Our small berry patch consists of a half acre of strawberries planted in 2019 and two and a half acres of blackberry production.
We sell local honey, as well as jams and jellies from our berries. Pre-picked and bulk blackberries are available for bakeries, or wine and beer making. Four hundred pounds of blackberries can be picked per day throughout our 2.5 acres of trellised blackberry plants!
We are generally open June 1st through mid-August although this changes from year to year. Follow us on Facebook or give us a call to make sure berries are available.
Berry picking is a great family activity and we love to have children come and see how food is grown. We offer shaded picnic tables for your convenience so bring a picnic and make it a fun family tradition!
In the off-season, we carry frozen berries so your taste buds can be satisfied all year long.
