Meet This Week's Featured Local Farmer

"We are a proud third-generation family farm, everyone in the Macrie family is actively involved in its operations, carrying forward a legacy of dedication and innovation."

Located in Hammonton, NJ, otherwise known as the “Blueberry Capital of the World”, the Macrie Brothers Blueberry Farm sits on some 800 acres, while standing on family tradition. Established by their father in 1953 as a 26-acre farm, today the 3 brothers, along with a handful of family members and some 500 workers produce 5 million pounds of blueberries per year. Still, despite “always wanting to be on the leading edge of technology and research to bring the biggest and best berries to our customers,” for the Macrie Bros, handpicking remains the preferred method for the fresh-market berries for which the farm is known.
