I have been going here since my children were little ( now they are 22 and 24). It has been our family tradition to pick blueberries every August. We love this place! People are nice, place is clean and mainly the blueberries are fantastic ! This farm has been family-owned for a long time as far as I know and we met the owner a few times in the past.
We like the coffee place where we can get some pastries and jam on the way out.
This place is well organized, they have people to navigate you since it is a large farm. Last year and this year, we were helped by a lovely gentleman who had the best tips for best berries. We regret that we do not know his name.
Since the farm became more and more popular, you need to book your date and time. We like this reserve booking system since the place was not as crowded and busy as before so the last week it felt peaceful and much more enjoyable to pick up blueberries.

Thank you everyone who has been making our experience wonderful all these years!!
Lydia with family.

This is the second year I picked blueberries and I must say this new reservation system works very well. Staff are great and it only took about 40 mins to fill my 2 litre bucket with the wonderful blueberries.

Treated myself to a Blueberry Bliss ice cream after at the Cafe.

Will participate again next year.

Blueberries were great as usual but staff need to monitor fields more to ensure there are berries available for picking before letting people in

I wait all year for blueberry picking. End of July August. Great opportunity for little ones to experience. Easy to pick the bush.
They also have homemade ice cream with fresh fruit as well as blueberry tea!
A shop on site to eat in or outside.

I love this orchard!! When in season you can purchase blueberries already picked or you can go and pick your own. They have amazing blueberry icecream and all sorts of blueberry based desserts. A few of my friends and I have gone over just to have dessert and a cup of coffee .

First time for blueberries , been living in the area for 6 years. Could t believe the size and quality of the berries. The prices for pick your own are very reasonable. The cafe has some awesome snacks and take home sauces. A must from now on every year. I also made jam from the blueberries.

Wilmot Orchards have the best fresh Blueberries in all of Clarington! They are picked fresh for you to purchase or you can pick your own. You can make it a family day and bring the whole family or just head on over and pick a basket or two for yourself! Charles, Courtney and Judy are the best hosts and cater to your every blueberry whim! Judy will tell you all about the health benefits of these blueberries and Courtney will take you into the tea room and serve you the best blueberry baked goods you have ever ate. Who knows you may even get to see Star! Charles will give you great pointers on how the berry is grown in the best way possible to produce the highest yield...they are such a knowledgeable group here...I love the Jersey berry and by enough to fast me until next season and freeze them to enjoy at least a cup every day! They open in the summer and for a short period only so get there early! The Jersey berry is last to ripen so August seems to be the time for me to get them! Drop in next season, you will be glad you did!

We've never picked blueberries before, and went to Wilmot Orchards on a recommendation from friends. If anything, they underrated it. There are fields and fields of blueberries, although not all are open at once, of course. They are well organized and have baskets you can use (buy?) if you don't bring your own. Their picking areas are well organized, too, and you are sent to rows with more than ample quantities of berries to pick.

Loved visiting this place! The staff was so organized and friendly and the prices are so reasonable, for 10 pounds of berries (excluding the basket), I paid around $30! I loved the atmosphere and the layout of the place, the bushes are so healthy and berries are so delicious, you can actually tell the difference in taste between them! I was skeptical at first because the berries were so big, I was under the impression the tiny ones were the best but they were great. I was told by the staff that the larger ones ripen first and to come towards end of August for the little ones, and I will. This was my first time picking blueberries and this orchard has gained a customer for life. I strongly recommend you try the blueberry coffee, it was so yummy that my friends and I bought ground beans to bring home, so worth it! I also tried the blueberry mousse pastry and it's to die for! Check this place out, it's absolutely wonderful!

Blueberries are always delicious, easy picking, an abundance of blueberries. Easy to book your spot. The blueberry ice cream was a plus!
