Its really cute, they don't have a lot of blueberry bushes so as the first varieties are picked over they "close" for a week to let the second and third variety ripen to make picking worth it. They are organic (not certified) but wonderful - 60 cents a pint for organic blueberries! This past weekend 6/28/09 they were closed until 7/4 to let the second variety of blueberries ripen. "

I was looking for a "new" place to U-Pick strawberries, as the place I used to go has become rather reginmented, and has way too many rules... Decided on Hallick farm and had the best time, great strawberries, great staff, GREAT prices!!! WE called in between the rain storms and they always gave a good update, (it rained alot and I called alot) and honest as to conditions and amount of berries. She has jars and pectin too, saved me a trip to the store twice. CAN'T WAIT TO GO BACK FOR SWEET CORN!!! But I really wanted to write and thank you for your site, (I have so far only canned fruit jams, but am ready to move on to more.) You really have a knack for those links-- they are great for anyone who is not to sure how to do something. Your explanations are so clear, and your writing style so "normal" that I feel like I'm talking to a friend. I'm not the most computer savvy person and you have it all set-up so EASY!!

Comments from a visitor on August 01, 2010: "I wanted to take my family to pick fruit today so I contacted the above farm at the number listed on your website (609-758-1133) and got no answer all morning long. I emailed the email address listed on your website (ckrowicki@yahoo.com) and asked them "Are you open today?" This is the response I received: "YES WE ARE OPEN FOR U PICK RIGHT NOW, BUT WE ONLY HAVE U PICK PEACHES AND NECTARINES AT THE MOMENT. WE WILL START PICK YOUR OWN APPLES AT THE END OF THE MONTH". After receiving that response we drove out to their farm. We received a very cold welcome and when we asked if we can pick our own fruit they said "we don't do that anymore". We asked them about the email we received - and they said that the person who sent us the email is not there right now. We were shocked at their rudeness and hope that you will advise other families of their obnoxious behavior. - Manahawkin Pick Your Own Berry Farm - strawberries,
