Blackberry Farm

We couldn't be more thankful for our Housekeeping team at Blackberry Farm. Their attention to detail is a key element to the guest experience we provide at Blackberry. From tightly tucked bed corners to perfectly placed towels, we couldn't provide the best Blackberry experience without them! #InternationalHousekeepersWeek #BlackberryFarm

For the month of August our team collected gently-used books to donate to the Blount County Friends of the Library in preparation for their September book sale. Our goal was to donate 1,000 books to this cause – just under 1 book per team member. However, we exceeded that expectation and were able to donate 1,830 books! Blackberry also generously matched by giving a monetary donation of $3,500. We hope others in Blount County enjoy every single page coming their way! #BlackberryFarm #WeAreBlackberry
