About
Griffin Berry Farm has been open since 1989, owned and operated by the Griffin family. We purchased 22 acres in 1986 when it was an abandoned soy bean field, and Bill's fun project quickly turned into the family's "fun" hobby.
Initially the land was covered in scrubby tallow trees and weeds. After a lot of hard work the land was smoothed, pond dug, rows made and 2000 blueberry bushes were in the ground. The first year customers had to bend over to get a few blueberries from each bush. Today they are maintained at 8 feet for easy reaching.
Muscadines are gone for this year. We still have LOTS of cooking pears which are good for eating and cooking. We have buckets for you to use for picking and sacks to take home. If you pick, pears are $15 for a 5 gallon bucket or 55 cents per pound. If we pick they are $20 for a 5 gallon bucket or 65 cents per pound. Please call 409-753-2247 to make an appointment to pick or to place an order. There are suggested recipes in the recipe section.

Farming Practices
In 1995, we built our home at the farm which saved hours of driving time. Although we were partly commercial in the early 90's, we are now entirely U pick and have 3 generations of some families still coming to pick.
Growing things is Bill's passion, so through the years we've added pears, muscadine grapes, satsumas, kumquats and mayhaws. We also have figs and pecans, but we never get any of these since the wildlife eats them first!
Most families come to pick because they love blueberries and other fresh fruit and know the health benefits, but also come for time to meditate, listen to the birds and enjoy a glass of blueberry lemonade in the shade.
We'd love to show you around, so please stop by and feel free to ask about blueberries or any other crop that we are growing! We're kid friendly!
