About Berry Hill Farm & Store
Wholesome food for wellness minded people. Berry Hill Farm began in 2003 with one acre of blueberries. Our focus at that point was to be engaged in a family friendly activity. We soon realized that a great benefit was the interaction with our customers. While it is essential in any business to make enough profit to pay the bills and provide a living wage for those involved, we have found great fulfillment in bringing good food to people who appreciate it. Currently we farm two acres of blueberries and one acre of vegetables including three high tunnels for winter production.

About Amish Country Dairy
At Amish Country Dairy, all of our products start with fresh, whole Grade A milk. Our flavored milks use only natural ingredients — strawberries, blueberries, coffee, cocoa, and pure maple syrup. Unlike commercial brands, our milk is not “fortified” because it doesn’t need to be. Minimal processing and lower-temp pasteurization preserve both nutrients and flavor. Amish Country Dairy returns to our roots. Our cows are local. Our production is local. Even our investors are local. We price our product to earn a living wage, one that allows us to preserve the land, care for our animals, and train the next generation of dairy farmers.

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.   

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.

Please watch our Facebook page - we'll occasionally surprise you with other fresh treats like blueberries, rhubarb, sweet corn, or tomatoes!
