Berry Good Farms has been a Tifton-area family favorite for years \u2014 a place where people come for the blueberries and leave with memories.

Honoring a Legacy<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Berry Good Farms was built by Bob and Pat Welker \u2014 two of the most remarkable people you\u2019ll ever meet. For over 41 years, they poured their hearts into this land and gave this community a place to come for clean, naturally grown fruit and genuine Southern hospitality. What they built here is something special, and we don\u2019t take that lightly for a single day.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

A Step of Faith<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

My wife Danielle and I had dreamed of owning a piece of land for over 15 years. In early 2025, we felt God telling us clearly: the land He promised us was coming. So we took a step of faith, called Berry Good Farms, and came out with the family to see it. The moment we set foot on this property, we knew. The rest, as they say, is history.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

The journey to get here wasn\u2019t easy \u2014 there were many steps of faith along the way. But we received this farm as a gift from the Lord, and every single day we wake up grateful for it. We are not the owners of this place in any prideful sense. We are its stewards. And we take that seriously.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Going Even Deeper<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Bob and Pat kept this farm clean \u2014 no synthetic chemicals, no pesticides. We are committed to carrying that forward and going even further. No synthetic pesticides. No synthetic fertilizers. No glyphosates. Nothing artificial on this property. We are actively studying and applying all-natural farming methodologies to grow the cleanest, most honest fruit we can. You can eat right off the bush here, and feel completely good about it.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

A Place for Everyone<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

We love God, we love people, and we believe that food and the land have a way of bringing both together. This farm is a place of community \u2014 somewhere you can come and breathe, slow down, and bask in the beauty of what God has made. We have big things on the horizon: small event gatherings, prayer walks, and more. We want this to be a place of ministry, of fellowship, and above all, of genuine joy for families and individuals from all walks of life.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

We have a saying around here: come and see what a very good God has made. We can\u2019t wait to meet you on the farm.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
