Welcome To North Branch Farm
Tree Sale: April 25 & 26, 2026
The 2026 Pick-Your-Own Highbush Blueberry Season is here! Our grand opening is Monday, July 13 from 4pm-7pm, with mostly Duke blueberries ripe for picking. Blue Ray, Blue Jay, Patriot and Meader are coming in shortly, followed by Jersey, Nelson and others! If weather & insects are in our favor we will be open, off and on, for about four weeks. We generally run the u-pick field as a self-serve, honor system operation, so stay tuned on our voicemail, (207)525-3323, and on our Facebook and Instagram accounts for up-to-date hours and other pertinent details. We accept cash, check and venmo at the blueberry stand. Hope to see you in the field!

March-ing on
