Originally established in the 1940s, the Mercer Slough and Larsen Lake blueberry farms are managed by Bellevue Parks & Community Services to help preserve Bellevue’s agricultural heritage. The farms provide a pastoral setting for park access and seasonal U-pick opportunities.
The farms carry a wide variety of fresh seasonal produce, cut flowers and other agricultural products. Over-the-counter blueberries and other fresh produce can also be purchased at the Lake Hills Farm Fresh Produce Stand.
People can usually come pick blueberries from mid-July to early September, however, the season varies with climate conditions. Blueberry picking is only permitted in designated areas during sales stand operating hours.
