BLUE FROG FARM & THE PATCH ON 37 ARE BOTH
CLOSED FOR THE 2022 BERRY PICKING SEASON.
THANKS FOR A GREAT YEAR!
This farm, 5499 SportsmanClub Rd. in Johnstown, OH is named after a brilliant blue bullfrog that resided in the pond during the spring of 2012. Blue Frog is a working farm, not generally open to the public. We do open occasionally for apple u-pick as noted on the ticker, Facebook or Cider Press Newsletter which is emailed weekly during market and harvest seasons.
BLACKBERRIES – U-pick occasionally, call the hotline for scheduled picking information 220-212-4318.
2022 Apples – Watch the ticker, apple picking schedule, Facebook and Cider Press Newsletter for picking locations and dates.
Due to the nature of the clay ground on the ridge where Blue Frog Farm is home to a spectacular orchard, it is not ideal for growing berries. This old berry patch is being replaced with a new planting at The Patch on 37 where the valley ground that lies near the stream should produce beautiful berries. During the spring of 2021 we planted 7 acres, mostly raspberries, to open 2022. Stay tuned!
Want to PICK raspberries at THE PATCH ON 37?
–Black & Red Raspberry U-Pick is at our newest farm The Patch on 37, 3131 Johnstown-Alexandria Rd., Alexandria. I runs from late June through mid July. Call our summer hotline number 220-212-4318 for up to date picking times, prices etc.
To FREEZE berries, just lay them on a tray, single layer and set in freezer. In 10 minutes you’ll have frozen berries ready to dump into freezer bags!
