After much deliberation and with heavy hearts, we are announcing that we are closing the Blue Bee Farm u-pick blueberry business.
We first want to thank all of you for three wonderful years. It has truly been an honor to meet many of you and to be part of your family traditions. However, with the current economic conditions, some staffing challenges, and the growth of our honey bee business, our choice was clear.
When we bought BlueBee Farm in 2017, we knew we had found the perfect place to continue our honey bee business with raising queen bees. With the blueberry plants already here, we had decided to continue the u-pick blueberry operation while we built our honeybee operations. In fact, our bees have been very happy here. This spring they have become extremely prolific and have needed more of our attention than ever before. Because of this, we had to make the hard decision to focus on our original business, the honey bees.
From our family to yours, we wish you all the best in these uncertain times.
Vic, Denise, Kirsten, and Julia
