Blueberry Hill

I photographed Blueberry Hill, a pick your own berry farm, in Canton for a Three of a Kind photo feature for the Atlanta Journal-Constitution on Thursday, June 28, 2012. Close to 330 blueberry bushes are available to pick on the half acre of land owned by Gus Kirchhof. Kirchhof opened his farm to pickers in 1996.
