September 03, 2008)
A visitor writes on July 08, 2008: "This farm was
fantastic! The blackberries were huge and sweet and the people
running the farm were friendly. The only issue is that the
directions from the internet were wrong. You do not turn at traffic
light 10 in Pigeon Forge, you turn at the road after light 10, Caney
Creek Road. Also the farm is not well marked, there are no u-pick
signs until you get to the farm. It is about 2 miles out Caney Creek
Road. My family and I highly suggest visiting, but call first to
make sure you're headed in the right direction. "
A visitor writes on July 19, 2008: "They have
put up many signs and it is easy to find now. The people were great
and the crop is wonderful. Berries were big and sweet! Would like to
have seen the grass shorter to better spot snakes. Other than that
we spent about an hour there and got five pounds of the best berries
I have seen this year! "

do not have to join their CSA. They are open on Tuesdays from 4-6 and
Fridays 11-2, I believe, you can go an buy her produce and eggs. It is not
a pick your own farm. It is certified naturally grown. The produce and
eggs are wonderful. I believe it is about $4.50 per dozen eggs, and her
produce is cheap--I recently bought two zucchni and one summer squash from
her all for 75 cents. " (Suggested by a visitor, ADDED: July 13, 2009)

Home Canning Kits
This is the same type of standard canner that my grandmother
used to make everything from applesauce to jams and jellies to tomato and
spaghetti sauce. This complete kit includes everything you need and
lasts for years: the canner, jar rack, jar grabber tongs,
lid lifting wand, a plastic funnel,
labels, bubble freer, and the bible of canning, the Ball Blue Book. It's
much cheaper than buying the items separately. You'll never need anything else except jars & lids! To see more canners, of different styles, makes and prices, click here!For more information
