For the last 3 years my family and I have enjoyed heading out to Pilar's chacra to pick her delicious blueberries. I am pleased to let you all know that for the month of November, there will be blueberry picking and organic produce available for purhasing at Pilar's chacra every Saturday morning, 9am-noon. The blueberries are $150pesos per kilo.
Please note that there will be no afternoon berry picking opportunities as there have been in previous years. The staff who handle both produce purchases and blueberry purchases will only be working in the mornings.
For blueberry picking, please bring your own containers. For produce, you will also need your own bags or baskets.
For those who have never been to Pilar´s chacra, take Ruta 11 north from the overpass in Atlántida for 6.5 km. You will see a metal windmill to your left. Take the next road to the right. The entrance to the chacra is the second driveway on the left, through the big open gates.
Mark it on your calendars. November 5th, 12th, 19th, and 26th.
See you there!

DeleteHi Annette, i'm planning On going this saturday. I was wondering if you could give me a
ReplyDeletePhone number in case we got lost. I Wanted to know if there's a fee or a cost? Thank you
Sorry Pilar does not give out her phone number. I have never heard of anyone getting lost finding it and we just followed the instructions that are on the blog post and we found it easily. The blueberries cost $150per kilo so it depends on how many you pick as to how much it will cost you :)
