We've come here a few times to pick blueberries, which is always fun. I'm always surprised by how many blueberries there are, ready for the taking. This is right off of Bellevue Way, and has a small private parking lot, as well as a store that sells local produce. I also like that there's a restroom there, which is always clean, as well as a water fountain. It's very useful on sunny days, especially when you spend a couple hours out in the fields, just picking blueberries. The place also provides buckets for you in case you forget to bring your own containers or bags. The space is huge. It's fun to even just walk along the trail, and you can easily get between the rows of bushes. I always bring my dog, too, which is allowed. But remember to bring bug spray - there are a ton of them out there!
In my most recent visit there were many ripe blueberries to pick, and we had easily run out of containers that we brought. It took less than an hour to get three-pounds worth. There were a couple other parties here in the late afternoon on a Sunday. But when I went to the use the restroom, one of the employees asked if there were still people in the fields. When I answered yes, another employee said, "Seriously!?" Her tone was really rude, and because of so I didn't think she was talking to us, as she was looking at her phone and couldn't possibly fathom a worker talking to a customer like that. 15 minutes later when we were about to leave my friend and I were waiting in the parking lot for my boyfriend who was in the restroom and the same woman who was on her phone earlier said to us, "Can you guys hurry up because we need to go?!" Her tone was SO rude, and that's when I knew she was upset about other people being in the fields when the other employee asked earlier. I let her know that we were just waiting for someone to use the restroom and that we were done blueberry-picking and would be on our way shortly after. She didn't say anything further and looked back at her phone. This was the only negative part about my experience here! Even my friend had mentioned how rude her tone was shortly after we had our encounter, and said that she didn't need to have spoken to us like that if they were trying to close down. Plus, since there were other people in the fields we didn't think that they were trying to close down or were in a hurry. If the employees needed to leave they could've brought this to our attention much, much nicer, better and more professional. Because of this horrible customer service this place is getting three stars. The facility is nice and love that Bellevue has a farm where people can go and pick their own blueberries, but the employee here was so terrible that I now will warn people about her before they go.
