Don’t forget to grab this year’s limited edition Blueberry Festival t-shirt.

Have Fun and Help the Farm

For close to forty years, festival guests like you have helped us preserve the rich history of our farm and village. What was once a Blueberry Trail Run with a few volunteers selling blueberries and t-shirts blossomed into this popular old-fashioned country festival. By enjoying live music and local vendors, exploring history and the unique ecology of The NJ Pine Barrens, festival guests have played a significant role in raising money for recent renovations and ongoing maintenance.

Why is The Blueberry Festival Important?

The Blueberry Summer Fest supports programs and staff in the village so we can continue to provide open hours for the public and educational programming. Funds also help support local blueberry farms and nurseries, and each year thousands of dollars are spent right here in our community (Browns Mills and Pemberton, NJ). Plus, the Blueberry Summer Fest is a great way to see the whole village, from our various museums to the heritage blueberry sites.

There is no entry fee, but donations are greatly appreciated
