Bobby Morgan oversees the blueberry fields at Paupack Blueberry Farm, not far from the east shore of Lake Wallenpaupack. The farm is family-owned and operated since 1964 when Donal and Shirley Coutts purchased 41 acres in Paupack Township. Some of this land was already in cultivation with Northern Highbush Blueberries. Bobby is married to Carol, one of the Coutts’s daughters, and together with other Coutts siblings, their generation has grown the business.
Today the farm grows more than two dozen blueberry varieties. There’s now an on-farm store and gift shop, which sells all things blueberry, including—you guessed it—blueberry pies and other baked goods. But the farm’s primary business every summer is pick-your-own berries, which opens near the end of July or beginning of August and lasts until Labor Day weekend. Contact the store at 570-226-9702 for information.
