Note from Blake: I've been to this farm many times. They are very well organized, the fields and berries are great and the people are very nice. The strawberries this year are amazing: huge, juicy, and flavorful through and through. Get there early for best picking!
Comments from a visitor on June 02, 2012: "Washington Farms Watkinsville, Ga - (May 30/12) Picked blackberries and blueberries earlier this week. They were amazing, so big and juicy. Easy to pick with small children and they also have strawberries (however its towards the end of the season for strawberries). Check out their website for more info. Great location, friendly people and great picking! Most importantly delicious berries!!!, "
Comments from a visitor on July 01, 2009: "We went to the Washington farm location that is in Watkinsville to pick blueberries, and they were so kind. Me and my family had SUCH a good time. My daughter in only 18months old and at a bunch of blueberries and they didn't get mad or upset, even though I said I would pay for more than what we picked, they told us not to worry about it. It was really family friendly and we will DEFINITELY be going back. "
Comments from a visitor on April 30, 2009: "We love the friendly staff, large fields for picking & the play area. "
