Fisher’s at Taylors
If you grew up in the Greer area, you probably went to The Peach Shed on Hwy 290 a couple of times and you for sure ate ice cream at Dillard’s.

The Peach Shed is now called Fisher’s at

Where to pick your own blueberries

Here’s our full list of places to pick blueberries near Greenville, SC.
5+ Tips for Picking Your Own Strawberries and Other Berries
Tip #1: It can get really hot in a berry patch. Pick in the early morning or early evening if possible and be sure to wear sunscreen and a hat if you are picking in the heat of the day. Don’t forget to bring water!
Tip #2: Be sure the kids use the bathroom before you leave the house.
Tip #3: Wear appropriate shoes and clothing. It’s a dirty job and there will likely be fire ant hills and other insects. Rain boots are an excellent choice. Also, bring bags that can get dirty, like plastic bags, for dirty shoes.
Tip #4: Be respectful of the farm. Coach your kids on good behavior such as not stepping on plants and only picking what you plan to keep. Some farms may also ask that you not eat strawberries while picking.
Tip #5: Be cautious of pesticides, and be sure to wash your berries when you get home before eating them.
Bonus Tip #1: Call ahead to be sure that the patch is still offering pick-your-own strawberries or blueberries. The pick-your-own berry season is typically only at the peak of the season and can change depending on demand and the crop.
Bonus Tip #2: Bring gallon baskets. Most patches ask that you only use approved gallon baskets or buckets. Usually, you can reuse baskets from year to year from local patches. Plan on spending a little extra money on purchasing approved baskets if you don’t already own some.

Thanks for the Sandy Flat recommendation – went this weekend with my kids and it was awesome! Never would have known about it except for this post. Thank you so much!
There is a little known blueberry patch on Cannon Rd in Greer behind Lake Cunningham that we’ve been to a couple of years now. They have really good berries and its usually not crowded. There is no information so you just have to drive by abd see if the sign is up. They are supposed to have them June-August. They sell late-season blueberries. We’ve picked well into August before. You just leave your money at the stand and borrow a basket if you don’t have your own. They are $10/gallon.
I am confused – today is June 29th – and per Sandy Flats facebook – they do not offer pick your own
Strawberry Hill Website says they are commercially owned and no longer a pick your own farm.
**Due to our being a commercial farm, we do not offer a U-PICK program to our customers. All berries are pre-picked by our employees and sold at our market.
Hi SB! The headings will be helpful. Sandy Flats offers Pick-Your-Own Strawberries (currently out of season) but they also sell many other types of fresh fruits & veggies during the entire season. There is a note that specifies that Strawberry Hill no longer allows pick-your-own. It is an excellent farm experience though since there is a lot for the kids to do there which is why it’s still included at the bottom of the list. I hope that helps.
Great article, thanks! Don’t forget Hunter Farms in Easley. You can pick your own strawberries or buy at the stand, along with local honey and beautiful flowers. BONUS: They make fresh strawberry milkshakes that are not to be missed! The family that runs it is very nice and welcoming too. It’s 20 minutes from downtown Greenville and a gen of the upstate!
