Blase Family Farm — Attraction in Rockwall

I recently visited the farm, and I must say it was an absolutely delightful experience! The farm itself is a lovely place with plenty of shade, making it a perfect spot to sit back, relax, and enjoy the surroundings. We arrived early in the morning to beat the heat and humidity, which I highly recommend to anyone planning a visit.

One helpful tip: if you can, bring your own small blue bucket. The farm charges $5 for one, so having your own will save you some money. The farm is very kid-friendly, and children had a fantastic time picking berries and exploring the area. It's a safe and enjoyable environment for families.

A huge plus is that you can eat the berries right off the bush. The farm doesn't use any pesticides, so you can munch away without any worries about chemicals. The berries were sweet and juicy, and it was fun to see the kids' faces light up every time they found a particularly plump one.

I would also suggest packing a picnic. There’s a wonderful picnic area under tall trees that provide plenty of shade. It’s the perfect spot to lay out a blanket, enjoy some food, and savor the fresh berries you’ve picked.

Overall, it was a memorable outing and I would definitely recommend it to others. Whether you're looking to gather some fresh berries or just enjoy a relaxing day outdoors, this farm is a fantastic choice. We'll certainly be back again...

The farm's entrance and parking area is located in front of a neighborhood of homes, so it's easy to miss. Look for the Blase Family Farm sign. The entrance is on the right side of the parking area. The parking area is not paved.

Once you enter, you have the option of purchasing 2 different-sized buckets that cost $4 and $4.50 for carrying the blueberries. You can reuse the bucket for future visits. You have a third option of getting a plastic bag for free.

There's a little hike to reach the blueberry picking area. It's not as large as other blueberry farms I've visited, but there were a lot of ripe/almost ripe berries to pick. The grounds are not very muddy.

You have to reserve online for the date and time you wish to visit. Reservations go FAST once a date is available online!! So, you need to check their website often. Because they limit visitors each day, you get a chance to find a good amount of berries.

They also have honey bees that you can visit. We didn't go see them this time.

There are lots of "beach" chairs for reclining and picnic tables on the property. There are lots of trees in the guest area for shade. They have a small gift shop and they charge $7/lb. of blueberries. The restroom is a Porta Potty. They also sell homemade popsicles. This is a great place for the family with older preschoolers and grade...

I visited Blase Family Farm for their pumpkin patch on the first day they opened for the season and they did not disappoint. Here are a few of the highlights; • affordable entrance fee ($9/person) • hay ride (no additional church) • petting zoo (.50 cents for sheep feed) (There’s also several hand washing stations) • pumpkins for sale at an affordable price • lots of available seating (picnic tables, logs, benches) • plenty of photo ops with fall backdrops • hay maze for the littles (this is actually my favorite maze because it’s perfect for young children. You can see above the hay, so it’s not very claustrophobic) • lots of available beverages and food for sale (also affordable) • pumpkin story walk • entire area is shaded with trees It’s a family owned business and they make you feel like you’re part of the family when you come in. They are so friendly and helpful. Definitely my favorite pumpkin patch...
