What's Ripe?
     
 
The Blueberries are Ripe! And Blackberries, too!

6/12/25

The blueberries are ripe and ready for you to pick. (Just pick the dark blue ones and leave the little ones to continue to grow and ripen!) There are delicious blueberries ready in both patches!

We have ripe blackberries! There are delicious berries in our regular blackberry patch and we have a new patch that has ripe berries as well! Be among the first people to pick in our brand new patch. It's tucked in past the peach trees so it's a bit of a walk to get there but the berries are worth it! The earliest varieties are ripe now and others will continue to ripen over the next few weeks.

We also have our very earliest peaches ready to pick! The early peaches are a delicious cling variety - I picked one and ate it when I was mowing this evening and it tasted great!

There are still a few cherries to be picked - most of the crop has been picked but there are still cherries to be found.

It doesn't often happen that we have cherries, blueberries, blackberries and peaches all ripe at the same time - come on out! Plus I forgot to mention we have ripe currants!

We're open every day from 8am-1pm at our farm off of Town Branch Rd. in Marthasville.

We also have some strawberry hanging baskets for sale. They will produce strawberries off and on all summer long!

We're growing things in our greenhouse but it's not a public pick-your-own area. Please don't go into the greenhouse.

We have boxes and quarts for you to pick into. You're also welcome to bring your favorite picking bucket - be sure to have us weigh them before you start picking!

Please park in the parking area and then walk to the blueberries and cherries. Parking along the road is not an option. Thank you for cooperating with this.

We occasionally have some ripe strawberries - they aren't set up as pick your own but we plan to have them for sale at the berry patch stand as we pick them.

We also have some ripe currants and you can pick them. The currants are in a row just past the greenhouse and the strawberries. They are small bushes.

Please watch your children (or the kids at heart) and ask them to refrain from picking berries and throwing them. I know it's fun to throw things - It's just not appropriate to throw the fruit. I see it a lot and I ask you to help us eliminate this activity. Thank you!

Please be aware that google might send you to our other location. You want to go to the berry patch location that is off of Town Branch Rd. From Hwy 47 turn onto Town Branch Rd, then turn left at the second driveway.

A Word About Safety

Please Be Careful!
We strive to maintain a safe orchard environment. There are many fruits available that can be reached from the ground. If a piece of fruit is tempting you from the top of the tree, use the ladders at your own risk.

If you choose to use a ladder while picking fruit, Thierbach Orchards assumes no responsibility or liability for accidents. You must understand the inherent risks and dangers associated with using ladders in the orchard.

If you do choose to use this ladder, form a tripod between the pole and the ladder legs for stability. Do not climb to the highest rungs.
