U-Pick Information:

Those who want to pick their own need to know some basic facts about Blackberries.  ALL fruit is best picked in the cool mornings when the fruit is at its optimum flavor as the plant has poured moisture and nutrients into the fruit all night long.  As the day progresses, the plant takes moisture and sugar from the fruit to meet the stress needs of the plant in the heat of the day. Heat is the enemy of fruit. Blackberries are even more critical to pick in the cool mornings as they have no skin like grapes.
