I was referred to the Blasz farm, by a friend of theirs, and was happy to support a local family during this time. The offer a ton of varieties in pre cut and you cut trees. Every tree we saw was gorgeous and perfect. There were also wreaths, gnomes and other decorations available for purchase. It was nice to be able to have some deluxe options that would be different from all the neighbors. Our wreath is much more full and handcrafted than ones I've purchased in the past. The prices were reasonable and the quality is excellent. The family members who worked here were friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. Everyone was wearing a mask and there was a lot of space to look around. I would recommend to anyone looking for a tree. Tip- bring cash or check to pay. They do not accept credit cards.

Get to Pepper's Blueberry Hill Farm within the next week for prime blueberry picking conditions!…read more This was my second year going to Pepper's and it is a bit of a drive from Buffalo, but highly worth it. It is easy to get to when you put the address, or the name of the farm into your GPS. There are also signs posted on the main road on where you should turn. The owner, who is always there, is extremely friendly and helpful. This year he even had water set up, in case you get a little parched while picking berries, and bug spray, if you forgot to spray up. They also provided picking jugs this year, just remember to bring your own container to put the blueberries in after picking, weighing, and paying. They do not spray their blueberries with pesticides, and it is only $1 per pound. The blueberries are delicious. I'm a slow picker and only picked 2 pounds in an hour. My mom and her husband got 5 pounds of blueberries. They like to freeze them and use them throughout the year in yogurt and smoothies. I can't wait for next year.

When we arrived we were greeted by the owner Dave, a kind and friendly man that radiated positive energy. Dave equips you with a gallon milk jug that is fashioned into a collecting vessel and provides you with a rope to tie the jug around your waist (you can take more than one jug). You pay only for what you collect and you pay $1 per pound of blueberries. We were encouraged to eat the blueberries right off the bush as he (Dave) did not spray the blueberries with any pesticides He told us that the farm was started in the early 1940's when his great grandfather first started planting the bushes. He explained to us that there were over 4,000 (yes you read that correctly four thousand!) bushes of blueberries and that there were many different varieties/species of blueberries just how there's different types/species of apples. The weather was beautiful and we all had a once in a lifetime experience of blueberry picking that I would recommend to anyone and everyone!!

What an fun way to spend a morning before the Bills game and get into holiday mode. I'd absolutely recommend this class to anyone who like crafts or wants to try something new. Everything you need is supplied for you on site and there even some extra upgrade ornaments available for you to purchase if you would like your wreath to be extra. The class was well run and pretty easy to follow. Making a wreath was a little more time consuming than I'd anticipated but well worth the effort. You might want to bring some gardening gloves to protect your hands. Check their Facebook page for class dates before the holidays. They also have a retail location and are at local craft fairs if you want to buy a premade wreath or centerpiece.
