11/03/2023

I would like to express a great big thank you to all of you for making the 2023 berry season an exciting, fun place in building long lasting memories with family and friends in a relaxed healthy environment. I appreciate all your happy smiling faces as we went through each day of the berry season together.

And a special thanks to my granddaughter, Alexis, for being a great assistant and my daughter-in-law, Alana, for her support with handling our social media. Each one of you are what makes this a successful little niche in this community.

As the holidays approach, I wish you all the best. Remember to eat healthy, have fun, and stay safe. I’m looking forward to seeing you all next year!

We’ll keep you posted,

Jay Shatto

From all of us here at Berries on Ballantyne, I would like to say a big “Thank You.”

Together with all your excited, smiling faces, conversations and greatly appreciated comments, we had a berry good blueberry season this year. The best ever.

It is people like you that makes it a pure joy, to make this place the best it can be, for you to come and just take a different perspective of life at its best.

Raspberries and blackberries are still going strong with the expectations of continuing through the end of September, along with a strong supply of elderberries currently in the freezer ready to purchase.

I look forward to seeing you as we continue the berry season. As always, we will keep you posted.
