Batesville, Ripley
Alpine Berry Farm
A very small u-pick blueberry patch - under an acre - run by Ted and Kathy Cooley at Batesville in Ripley County, in operation since 1990. Eight varieties of blueberry, grown with certified organic fertilizer and no herbicides or pesticides. Berries, raw blueberry blossom honey from hives on the farm, and local artwork are sold out of a restored 120-year-old barn, which also has restrooms, water, and indoor and outdoor seating. Bring your own containers to take berries home; picking buckets are provided. Cash, check or Zelle - no credit cards - and no dogs in the patch. The 2026 blueberry season closed on August 15; u-pick was $5/lb, pre-picked $8/pint. Honey stays available on the barn counter year-round. Kathy posts picking conditions to Facebook and the farm website, and asks visitors to text before driving out.
