Smyrna

Andrews Berry Farm grows berries on Cooks Lane in Smyrna, Rutherford County, in fast-growing Middle Tennessee southeast of Nashville. Berry farms in this area open for strawberries in May and move into blackberries and blueberries through June and July. Smyrna sits just off Interstate 24 near Murfreesboro. Ripening depends on the weather, so call ahead to check picking conditions and hours before driving out.

Murfreesboro

Batey's Berries is the pick-your-own arm of Batey Farms, a long-running family operation on Wilkinson Pike in Murfreesboro. Spring brings u-pick and pre-picked strawberries; the same farm turns to pumpkins and a fall season later in the year. Batey Farms also raises and sells its own pork. It's one of Rutherford County's better-known produce stops, close in to Murfreesboro rather than a long rural drive. Confirm the strawberry opening each spring, since it shifts with the weather.

Murfreesboro

The Blueberry Patch grows blueberries on West Gum Road in Murfreesboro, in Rutherford County southeast of Nashville.

Lewisburg

Lewisburg

Bee Sweet Berry Farm is a u-pick berry farm on Globe Road outside Lewisburg, growing blueberries, blackberries, and raspberries.

Columbia

Uncle Al's Berry Farm is a pick-your-own berry patch on Hays Denton Road in Columbia, in Maury County. Visitors bring buckets and pick their own in the summer season. It's a modest operation that shows up mainly in u-pick and local-harvest directories rather than on its own website, so specifics on crops and daily hours shift year to year. Calling 931-381-6939 ahead is the best way to confirm what's ripe before making the drive out.
