Klaassen Farms - Chilliwack Blueberries

Klaassen Farms - Chilliwack Blueberries

Berry season is alive and well in the Fraser Valley once again.

Klaassen Farms (located at the east end of Chilliwack Central Rd - map below) is the perfect location to pick up all of your blueberries and blueberry products. Whether you stop by to grab a box (or two!) of blueberries or head out into the field and the pick them yourself, Klaassen Farms, their owners and their products are always a treat encounter.

This year in the store you will find fresh blueberry ice cream (we saw were two versions on our visit) which is special-made combining both Klaassen Farms blueberries and ice cream from Birchwood Dairy in Abbotsford. There were also fresh muffins baked by Decades Coffee Club, a much-loved downtown Chilliwack business. It is such a neat prospect seeing local businesses in collaboration, even for something as simple (and delicious) as a blueberry muffin!

From the Klaassen Farms website:
”We are a family owned blueberry farm offering delicious blueberries grown locally in Chilliwack, British Columbia. Our family has been farming for over 20 years, and with over 100 acres of blueberries we are dedicated to growing great tasting blueberries at an affordable price. Our goal is to grow and produce natural and flavoursome blueberries and we do this by focusing on sustainable farming. We use all natural and organic products on our blueberries in order to provide our customers with nutritious, fresh and frozen blueberries throughout the year. By using an organic spray and only spraying when absolutely necessary our blueberries are safe to eat right from the field.”
