Where are we?

130 Rocky Point Avenue
Warwick, RI 02889

We are on the road to the former Rocky Point amusement park, on Warwick Neck, which is surrounded by Narragansett Bay. To find us:

From nearby points in the northern part of Warwick and Cranston, take Warwick Avenue south to Hoxie Four Corners (Dave's supermarket on far right corner), left on West Shore Road to left on Warwick Neck Avenue (Rocky Point Pub on right) to left on Rocky Point Avenue. We are about 200 yards down Rocky Point Avenue on the right, past our neighbors' houses to the farm gate and signs.

From Providence and points north, take I-95 to exit 14, stay left for 37 East to the exit for Post Road South. At the third light, left on Airport Road. At Hoxie Four Corners (Dave's supermarket on right) continue straight ahead on West Shore Road and follow above instructions.

From points south, take I-95 to exit 10, 117 East (Centerville Road, through Apponaug becomes West Shore Road) to right on Warwick Neck Avenue (Rocky Point Pub is on the left at that intersection), to left on Rocky Point Avenue to our signs on right.

Rocky Point Farm grows blueberries, mainly for customers in our area who pick their own. Our website tells about us, about picking and enjoying blueberries, and about the health benefits of blueberries. You can also find links to other sites, including sources of recipes. We even offer tips on growing your own blueberries. And we introduce you to another fruit, pawpaw, that is new to Rhode Islanders.

End of season blueberry report, August 7, 2010: Finding ripe berries was a challenge today, the last day of picking. But it was a pretty good season despite the damage to fruit buds by winter moth last spring--Paula’s customers picked over 10 tons.

Our Frequent Pickers had a good year. The Rakhlin Family team again took top honors, with 346 pounds, and the Hasbro hospital group and the Happy Group were close behind with over 200 pounds. Honorable mention to several teams over 100 pounds: Cesario Family, Rosol Family, Malyuta Family, Jefferson Diner team, The Thompsons, Petterson Family, and Brown Physics team. All on the list should make themselves known at the beginning of the season next year. Our thanks to them and to all who picked and contributed to another good year.

Help make all of the former Rocky Point amusement park public and accessible. Although RI and the city of Warwick acquired 41 acres of this treasured landscape for open space and access to the shoreline, the public is kept out until the fate of the remaining 80 acres is settled. Because of the economic downturn, no developers are interested (thankfully), making this a rare temporary opportunity to acquire at a reasonable price the entire property for public enjoyment. The city and state are determined to take advantage of this moment, and may succeed if voters approve a question on the ballot next November for a bond issue including $10 million for Rocky Point. A new non-profit foundation, the Rocky Point Foundation, has been created to help; to check out their website click here.
