June is here which means blueberry season is about to arrive in Arkansas! Farms all across the state are getting ready to bring their berries to market but we know nothing beats getting to pick-your-own! The Neal Family Farm is getting ready for a berry fantastic summer so let’s pop in and see what to expect:
Every Arkansan knows the best berries come from our local farms here in the Natural State.
Strawberry season is still going on but blueberries will be ready soon! June and July are the best months to find local blueberries and blackberries. The Neal Family Farm already has ripe blueberries and is expected to open to the public around the first week of June.
Like other businesses around the state, Neal Family Farm is adapting to the new health risks of COVID-19. Your family's safety is a top priority! The farm is implementing increased traffic control, thorough sanitation, employee training, and single-use packaging.

There are multiple ways to ensure these fresh berries reach your family's table.
Pick-your-own is still available this year though there will be a limited number of farm guests. This means reservations are a must! The Neals have also increased their supply of pre-picked berries that can be picked up with limited contact. This year's big summer special at the farm is four weeks of pre-picked blueberries. For $100 you'll reserve four gallons of blueberries that can be picked up a gallon at a time each week. Just imagine the endless goodies!
Now more than ever do we need to support our local farmers and the Neal Family Farm is ready to support all of your berry needs!
This season is expected to be a strong one which means plenty of tangy blueberries for baked goods and drinks! Prepare for a delicious trip to the Neal Family Farm! Follow their Facebook Page to see the official open date for the season and head to their website for more information on berry orders and picking reservations.
