Tillman Farms

About Tillman Farms

Tillman Farms is a blueberry farm on South Michigan Street in LaPaz, Marshall County, formerly known as Pertics Blueberry Plantation. It is a straightforward picking farm: rows of blueberry bushes and some raspberries, with visitors picking for themselves during a short summer window.

The season is brief and usually begins at the end of June. Exact opening days, hours and how much fruit is left are posted on the farm's social pages, so check there before heading out. Seasonal help is hired from late June through early August, which gives a sense of when the farm is busiest.

One old-fashioned touch: visitors can fill out a postcard at the farm, and the farm mails it back the next summer when the berries are ripe, a reminder that the season has started. Credit cards are accepted.

Pretty Lake Farms, a lavender grower near Plymouth, is about 10 miles to the south. Ask that farm about its open days, since its visiting schedule is not published; if it lines up, berries and lavender can share a late-June morning.

What to do

• Pick your own blueberries starting around the end of June
• Look for raspberries, which are grown in smaller amounts
• Fill out a postcard to be mailed a reminder when next year's berries ripen
