Blueberry Jam Festival is an event created on the premise of community and unity.  It is our goal to invite and attract guests of a limitless array of cultures to share common interests such as music, arts, crafts, food, leisure, and sustainability.  During June 21-22, 2013(Camping allowed through June 23), Drewry Farms will host Blueberry Jam Festival to kick off the berry picking and produce season with plenty of fresh, local foods.  We aim to share this experience with local cultural groups, historians, farmers, musicians, youth groups, enthusiasts, and anyone who wishes to try something new.  Awareness is key at Blueberry Jam Festival, and understanding that we all have something to give and receive from one another.  

For more information/updates, support our Facebook page, Blueberry Jam Music Festival, and check out the farm page at Drewry Farms Blueberries.

RULES AND REGULATIONS. 
-Please help keep the grounds clean! The 7 Leave No Trace principles do a good job of explaining our expectations. Look them up!
-No underage drinking
-No illegal drugs
-No weapons of any sort
-No open fires. Use gas only for cooking purposes please. 
-No ATV's, or any form of motorized vehicle. Bicycles, Unicycles, even Tricycles welcome!
-There will be clearly designated camping/parking areas. Respect the land
-While we do love furry friends, we do not have the capability to allow pets at Blueberry Jam unless they are being used as service animals.  There are many potential hazards on the farm for free roaming pets, and we do not like the thought of tying them up all day!
