Fresh Blueberries, Blackberries and Flowers from Blueberry Thrill Farm! |
Okay so the hills were on my commute to the farm, but the
title had to be reminiscent of the song, right?
I’m no stranger to summer crops, especially growing up in
North Carolina. As a young child I
vividly remember going to the fields, picking blueberries and eating them right
off of the bush. I’m certain
that’s where my love for raw blueberries began. Not too long ago, I was introduced to a local farm that not
only had rows and rows of berries, but was only five minutes from me. Oh, and the cutest name ever: Blueberry
Thrill Farm!

I really didn’t have any expectations of the farm…I mean, if
you’ve seen one blueberry bush, you’ve seen them all. The farm not only offered blueberry picking, but also
blackberry, herbs, and fresh flowers! When picking, it’s best to go for the
lower berries. They’re always the
sweetest. Of course you want to
stay away from the green or red berries…they aren’t quite ripe! I was in love from the moment I stepped
foot in the field. If you’re ever
in NC, you have to make it a point to visit!
Blueberry Thrill Farm is located
at 6938 Eaglesfield Road, Gibsonville, NC, 27249. Like them on Facebook: Blueberry Thrill Farm!
Let’s talk Fashion:
I wanted to be comfy on the farm, so I went with a basic
short sleeved sweatshirt, and paired it with cutoff denim shorts. To bring the look together, I opted for
cowboy boots and a simple hat!
