Here is a little youtube slideshow about berry picking at Rush River Produce. Thanks to our friends Kath and Alex and their munchkins, and to Kris for putting it together.

Rush River Produce is the premier U-pick Blueberry farm for Western Wisconsin and Southern Minnesota. A fun family experience for kids of all ages. Come visit us – we are a beautiful scenic drive from Minneapolis & St. Paul, or Rochester, Minnesota (1 to 1.5 hours), Menomonie/Eau Claire, Wisconsin (about an hour) or just 15 minutes from downtown Red Wing, MN along the Mighty Mississippi River, at Lake Pepin.

Our Pick Your Own Berry Farm has 9 acres of delicious, healthy Blueberries to choose from over the summer season. Blueberries are available July and August. There are 13 different varieties of Blueberries growing here at Rush River Produce providing an extended blueberry picking season.

In addition to 9 acres of Blueberries we have Black Currants and Red Currants in abundance with smaller crops of White Currants and Gooseberries – the season for these fruits is early July to early August.

Blueberry picking hours (NEW HOURS): 8 am to 2 pm, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday - Berry Supply Permitting. A word to the wise: Each berry season is different. Some years start early and/or end early and berry supply is not constant through the season.

We ripen the most blueberries in the month of JULY, allowing great picking Thursday through Sunday. August is much more chancy for having a good supply during our 4 day picking window.

Always call for availability before driving to the farm – we want to be sure that we have enough delicious Blueberries for you to pick. The season runs from July through August. Please check back at this site after July 4th or give us a call at 715 594-3648 for an update or more information.
Rush River Produce is located just 3 miles off Hwy. 35, Wisconsin’s Great River Road, outside of Maiden Rock, WI. Please call (715) 594-3648 for picking information and directions. The berry farm is a scenic one hour drive from the Twin Cities, Eau Claire or Rochester areas. For your convenience it is open four days a week – Thursday through Sunday, 8 am until 2 pm, July and August.

“We provide the boxes, you take home the harvest.” 

Rush River Produce is a family operation, run by Terry and John Cuddy with the great assistance of our teenage boys Joe and Lucas. Please bring your family to meet ours. We work hard to provide you a delicious fruit crop with the help of Mother Nature.

We sell directly to you, so we can answer your questions about blueberry growing and provide you with the personal service that has become the standard at Rush River Produce.
