I have been driving all over different places to go find muscadine that I can eat the inside part of it, and I finally found this place. The owners were very nice, friendly, and welcoming. The drive to get here was pleasant, and it was a very easy drive for me. I look forward to coming back here again. I am so glad to discover this place!! $1/1lb of Muscadine or Scuppernong, no entry fee!!

We were the only ones present & it felt like a private Family picking for us. It was a hot day. It was surely fun. I've picked cherries previously, however, this was first for Blueberries. We picked up about 13 pounds. We plan to alert Blueberry Jam. We would come back again.

Such a fun hour or so. The kids enjoyed the outing so much that we went back the following weekend…read more During that visit, the owner shared that he has a group come pick for the local food pantry! Generosity abounds. Glad I could support this business and enjoy his farm too.

A fun fall date!…read more Southern Belle Farm, located in McDonough, provides hours of wholesome fun and free parking. My wife and I arrived on a warm October day to enjoy the pumpkin patch and U-pick flowers. We arrived in the afternoon, but there was plenty of selection and nothing was "picked over." I paid $16 for a quart sized plastic vase for my U-pick flowers. They sell gallon sized buckets as well. Scissors and water are provided. Be mindful of bees in the field. They won't trouble you if you don't trouble them. There is an area in the back for you to arrange the flowers; I took full advantage of this because this trip doubled as a photo shoot. There were all types of people enjoying the farm; IG girls, families, even one couple using a wagon full of pumpkins as a baby announcement. Pumpkins range from $5-$20 each depending on size and breed. A nice young man named Luke helped us corral our pumpkins and carry them to our car. I didn't know they offered that service, but we tipped well. If you run up an appetite, they have a snack bar with fritters, ice cream, and lemonade. I'll be back next fall!

Parking was fine right by the trees so the walk was not far. You can pay by cash, check, or Venmo. They did weigh the blueberries with the bucket and then dumped it in a bag, but otherwise it was a nice activity. We would definitely return at some point.

They also were given free bread to go feed the farm animals- some friendly goats and cows. We packed a lunch for the girls and ate at a picnic table on the property. Good prices for blueberries by the pound and friendly people. We will definitely be back next summer! FYI- You have to check Facebook to find out when and if they're open in the summer for picking. When the bushes get too picked over they will close until they are ready again!

Sunshine in my hand - I'm in heaven!…read more It's peach season in Georgia. This year (June 2009) the trees are thick with juicy fruit. Blueberries are also in season, but I stuck with peaches when I was there. You can buy a basket already picked at the roadside stand, or borrow a 5 or 10 gallon bucket and pick your own. (Staff will put them in a box for you to take home.) Easy to get to off of I-75/exit 212. Bring water to drink. There is a bathroom available at the stand.

Lake Martin has a great local food source in Oakview Farms. They sell wheat berries for folks that…read moremake their own bread. They offer u pick blueberries, they make their own goat cheese, eggs, and honey. They also sell a lot of organic and sustainable vegetables and grains. They are also really nice and will take time to educate you about what they sell. We first went there to buy our own bread making supplies and equipment and they took time to educate us about the process. They are just off of Redland Road so they are only about 15 minutes from some parts of Lake Martin. Call ahead to make sure they are open but Saturdays are a great day to go all year. Let the kids feed the goats as you get your own locally made organic food.

Unless you have small children, Blueberry Hill is probably not what you are looking for on a…read moreSaturday morning. However, if you do (have the small kids), I highly recommend. Located in the Covington/Conyers border zone where the (now in their 20's) lost children of Rockdale County (long story if you don't get the reference) still cruise the strip malls - this small pick-your-own blueberry patch serves as entertainment and, dare I say, appreciation for where food comes from to sugar crazed preschoolers. A few of the neighborhood dads and myself carted our offspring to the hinterlands this past weekend to let said fruit of loins pick some berries. As the owner does not use any pesticides, the berries are safe to each right off the bush - a good thing if you have a pack of 2 and 3 year olds. When we arrived, we found that the patch was actually closed due to excessive picking the previous week - but the owner didn't have the heart to turn away the little tykes, so the kids were allowed to pick all of the ripe blueberries they could find. Who knew searching for the little blue orbs in a sea of pink unripened fruit could be so much fun? The kids had a blast (imagine a hunt for miniature sugary Easter eggs) and we parents were grateful for the nap inducing crash (the kids ate a decent portion of what they picked) that happened 1 hour later. Oh, the owner only charged us 5 bucks for all that we picked because he felt poorly about the status of the patch. Nice guy.

I called the owner in June 2015 and she said that Blueberry Hill is now CLOSED TO THE PUBLIC. I…read morefelt bad - sounds like she has had a lot of trouble getting the word out that its closed since it is on virtually every pick-your-own guide website.

Country Gardens offers a variety of fresh vegetables, meats, eggs, even raw milk for your pets! My pets quite enjoyed the raw milk and we will certainly be getting some more on our next visit. Their farm stand has self service during the week during the open season (good to know if we're in the area during the weekday). I wish we lived a bit closer because I would love to participate in a class in the future! Highly recommend following their Facebook page or directly through their website for more info.

Out in the far "sub'untry", where the 'burbs face off against the country, lay a large spread of…read morebuildings, barns, and fields down a dirt drive. Welcoming you to this sub'untry enclave is multiple goats, loads of chickens, a couple of great pyrenees, and a few miniature horses; perhaps they are ponies, I'm not really sure about that. After you park go visit the animals. After all you might later purchase some of their brethren. That's right kiddies.. those lovely chickens you are cooing to lay oodles of gigantic organic*, free-range*, all-grain* diet eggs. And those eggs are spectacular, which is a good thing at $5 per dozen. Country Gardens might even have some of those pastured* chickens frozen in the freezer waiting to be purchased, cooked up, and eaten. They also have loads of grass-fed*, chemical-less*, meat "products" like young goat, cow, or pork. There is even raw milk fresh from Country Gardens own dairy down the road. If that doesn't completely rock your socks off, and it does mine because I am one of those crazy bitches who wants to know exactly how many friends my dinner had while alive, what kind of music it liked to listen to, and what it's favorite hobbies were (Portlandia), then be prepared to get excited about the large quantity and great quality of their garden products. Oh yes. Not just a farm...but a nursery....for plants...lots of plants. All the plants I saw here looked great. Prices were good. I didn't really notice a difference in what I would have paid at big box nursery vs here. On top of the fresh meat and eggs, beautiful plants, and live animals, they also have a gorgeous vegetable garden and during the summer you can often purchase fresh*, organic*, obviously local* vegetables here. They have a CSA that delivers to Peachtree Road Farmers Market. So anyhoo to sum up the review, this place is great. It is a haul from Atlanta proper, but the eggs you get here are freaking A-MAZING, and the dogs are nice, and the animals cute, and the plants pretty, and so on and so forth...... *Had to throw in as many buzzwords as possible in order to meet my "what white people like" daily quota
