Planning your trip:
Our blueberry farm is located in the south suburbs of Chicago, just 25 miles south of downtown Chicago.
While we do our best to stick to our hours, nature doesn’t always agree.
If there is rain or extreme heat in the forecast, kindly confirm we are open before making the trip.
It is buggy. Please bring bug spray.
If you're sensitive, we would also suggest lightweight pants and long sleeves.
It may be hot and sunny. Please pack water, a sun hat and sunscreen.
It may be wet and muddy. Please wear appropriate shoes and clothing.
Make a day of it!
Pack a picnic lunch.
Catch and release fishing available for blueberry pickers.
Port-a-Potty on site.
Please keep in mind:
Kindly respect our home property.
Please throw your garbage in the trash bins provided onsite.
Because we do not use chemicals on our crops, please use bug spray in designated area.
We honor Cash, Square and Venmo as methods of payment.
We do not offer pre-picked berries. That's half the fun!
Be aware:
There are poisonous wild berries; please stick with blueberries and you’ll be fine.
There are wild roses and raspberries on the property that have thorns; don’t get stuck.
You may see raccoons, skunks or other wild animals. Please ignore them.
No swimming, wading or boating.
Staying safe:
There is plenty of space on the farm. Please be considerate of others and stay 6 feet from other people.
We do not require you to wear a mask but please feel free to do so if it provides you a layer of protection.
Our rules are simple:
Enjoy the day and treat Mother Nature with respect
And kids, keep your parents close by - you know how they can get lost….
Thank you to all of the patrons who took time out to enjoy Willowthorne's u-pick blueberry season! It's been great having you and your families visit and enjoy our farm.
We are grateful for your support and look forward to seeing you next summer!
