After the success of the 1st U-Pick, the Cooperativa will have their second U-Pick this Sunday!
For first-timers: come and meet the farmworker co-op owners and celebrate blueberry season - taste fruit produced without exploitation to humans and Mother Earth
For second-timers: Welcome back!
This U-Pick will have blueberries AND raspberries:
$3 / lb for fresh blueberries produced organically
$2.50 / lb organic raspberries
U-Pickers: please bring your own box to carry berries home if possible. The cooperative is trying to reduce packaging waste
Driving Directions:
Head north on I-5, take exit 255 for WA-542 E or Sunset Drive (toward Mount Baker)
At the exit, bear right on 542 / E Sunset Drive
In 0.9 miles, turn left on Hannegan Road (heading north)
In 7 miles, turn right on Central Road (it T-bones with Hannegan. It's right after Ten Mile Road. All of the intersections are marked a little ways out with a yellow sign with the intersecting street name.)
In around half a mile , the Cooperativa land is on the left on Central Road. There is a huge CAMPESINO POWER sign hanging on the property, and a sandwich board marking the entrance with an image of Zapata!
