MGM Family Orchard offers the incomparable flavor of blackberries picked fresh from our orchard! Our blackberry plant selection includes a range of varieties, so you can choose the one that best suits your needs. Most are thornless to make picking easier. Our varieties are reliable producers that will give you enjoyable berries season after season. The blackberries from these plants are glossy and firm, with a unique, tasty blend of sweetness and tartness. They are perfect for making cobblers or juice or even wine.
