Produce Farms near North Judson, IN

North Judson

The Goin family has grown blueberries on this 80-acre North Judson property for more than 40 years, about an hour from Chicago. U-pick season runs mid-June through early August, with ready-picked berries available for anyone who'd rather skip the field; picnic tables and lawn games make it easy to turn the trip into an afternoon. Indiana's State Fair has named it a Featured Farm.

North Judson

Bonnell's Blueberries in North Judson sells both u-pick and ready-picked berries, but ready-pick orders have to come in by phone — the farm doesn't take email orders. It's a straightforward, no-frills operation off S 750 W, worth a call before the drive to confirm what's ready.

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.

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.

Wheatfield

Luedtke runs a straightforward u-pick blueberry operation in Wheatfield, open daily 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. during the summer harvest.

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.

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.

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.

DeMotte

Zylstra's Blueberries grows on W 1200 North outside DeMotte, in Jasper County. Beyond the address, no verified hours, website, or picking details for the farm turned up online. The Zylstra surname fits DeMotte's documented Dutch-American heritage — the town's First Christian Reformed Church dates to the 1940s and DeMotte still holds an annual Touch of Dutch festival each August.
