This family-friendly Adams County festival combines pick-your-own blueberries, desserts, food trucks, artisan vendors, crafts, scavenger hunts, and outdoor fun into one gloriously blue-purple weekend near Gettysburg.

Top Picks for Families
Pick-Your-Own Blueberries
Families can head into the fields to pick fresh blueberries straight from the bushes. It is one of those wholesome summer activities that feels straight out of a nostalgic storybook until somebody accidentally eats half the bucket before checkout.
Parent hack: Dress younger kids in darker colors. Blueberry stains are basically a seasonal accessory.
Blueberry Desserts & Farm Bakery Treats
The bakery and dessert lineup includes blueberry pie, blueberry sundaes, baked goods, and blueberry-themed treats that somehow convince everyone they absolutely need “just one more thing” before leaving.
Parent hack: Buy baked goods before the ride home. Your future self will deeply appreciate a midnight blueberry pastry situation.
Scavenger Hunts, Crafts & Yard Games
The festival includes family scavenger hunts, crafts, and outdoor games designed to keep kids moving, exploring, and happily occupied between snack breaks.
Parent hack: This event works especially well for younger elementary kids because there is enough structure to stay interesting without becoming overstimulating.
Wagon Rides, Live Music & Farm Vibes
Wagon rides, local artisan vendors, live music, and food trucks help create the kind of laid-back summer atmosphere that makes parents quietly wonder if they should move to a farm immediately.
Parent hack: Bring lawn chairs or a blanket if your family enjoys settling in for awhile while kids bounce between activities and snacks.
Tips for Visiting with Kids
- Wear comfortable shoes. This is a working farm with uneven ground in places.
- Bring sunscreen and water. July farm festivals can get warm quickly.
- Pack wipes and an extra shirt for little kids. Blueberries are deliciously messy.
- Arrive earlier for easier parking and cooler temperatures.
- Build in market browsing time. The farm market is part of the experience.
- Expect your children to suddenly become deeply invested in berry picking.
