Michigan City

Stateline Blueberries has picked berries a few miles from the Lake Michigan shoreline for decades, across 30 to 35 acres kept walkable with grass mowed between the rows. U-pick runs late June through mid-August, and the sales shed sells ready-picked berries alongside local honey, jam, and blueberry-based condiments like a barbecue sauce. Call ahead for picking conditions before making the drive.

Chesterton

Westville

Coulter's has run a roadside stand in Westville selling sweet corn, tomatoes, melons, and garden plants through the growing season, then shifts into fall mode with a pumpkin patch, corn maze, and hayrides come September. It's a smaller, family-run operation rather than a big event destination; cider and a play area for kids round out the autumn visit. Jean Coulter has handled the farm's day-to-day for years.

LaPorte

Blueberries of Indiana has grown organic blueberries in LaPorte since 1948 and holds USDA Certified Organic status. U-pick runs alongside ready-picked orders, and the farm stand adds local honey, juice, preserves, and baked goods. Weekend hours run Saturday and Sunday, 8 a.m. to 6 p.m., through the season.

New Buffalo

Mike's Blueberries is a cash-only, U-pick blueberry farm on Farina Road in New Buffalo, running from July through early August. Visitors describe the picking as a quiet, unhurried break despite the nearby highway, with several pounds of fruit typical for an afternoon in the rows.

Union Mills

This small, family-run u-pick farm on US Highway 6 grows red raspberries and blueberries, with raspberries typically ready by late June and blueberries following around July 1. It runs daily 8 to 6 through the June-to-September season and keeps a following for how clean and well-kept the rows stay all summer.

Wanatah

Native Roots Farm has provided northwest Indiana with fresh, high-quality organic vegetables since 2013, grown in Wanatah. Customers order online through the farm's Eat From Farms store — the baby butter lettuce is the #1 seller — and collect at pick-up and delivery locations around the region.

Blue Sky Berry Farm grows u-pick and ready-pick berries in Wanatah, in LaPorte County, Indiana, with a short season running roughly from the Fourth of July into early August. The farm operates as a call-ahead business — no online ordering, no voicemail orders — so customers call first and show up during the active picking window.

Valparaiso

Living Earth Farms in Valparaiso, Indiana grows organically raised fresh produce on a simple principle: feed the soil, and let the soil feed your plants. The farm treats soil as a living organism — billions of microbes per tablespoon — using natural fertilizers, organic matter, and minimal tillage instead of artificial inputs.

Batshit Crazy Farms manages The Edge of Liberty, a small organic farm just north of Valparaiso, Indiana, hosting Sunday farm stands of fresh-picked organic produce, community garden space, biweekly craft fairs, and regenerative agriculture tours. The farm also sells dried herbs, nursery plants, chemical-free beeswax products, and farm-fresh eggs — local pickup only, because they want to know their customers face to face.

Sawyer

Blueberry Patch operates in Sawyer, deep in Berrien County's fruit belt along Lake Michigan's southwest shore — the same sandy soil that makes this corner of the state one of the country's top blueberry-growing regions. Hours and picking details for this specific farm aren't posted online; call ahead.

This Northwest Indiana u-pick blueberry patch has changed hands and now operates as The Berry Patch at Mitzner Farms, though longtime visitors still know it by its old name. The new owners kept the u-pick and pre-picked blueberry setup that built the place's following in the first place.

The season is short — usually early July through early August — with hours around 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. most days. Check Facebook or Instagram before driving out, since picking hours shift with how the bushes are producing.

Indiana
