U-pick blueberries and flowers

During the summer and early fall we open the gate for u-pick: wild-tasting blueberries, flowers by the cup or bucket, and herbs for tea. It is one of the most loved summer things to do on Orcas Island with kids. Hours are posted weekly on our email list and Instagram.
