The Agri-Tourist, My Journey Back to Agriculture
Blueberries, Treehouses & Sharks, Oh My! Jyl and Rico Bring Us Back to Nature!
The Blueberry Treehouse Farm is a family-friendly, fun, and picturesque event space created by owners Jyl and Rico Rivera in the rural, vibrant community of West Falls, NY (near Buffalo). They have taken a historic farm growing blueberries for over 35 years to the next level by opening it to thousands of visitors. They combine the farm with their business and passion so visitors can see, experience, and treasure a treehouse for themselves. As parents, the owners of a small business, and creative visionaries, they seek to change the image of a farm to become a cool place to visit often, connect with nature and benefit the entire community.
The farm includes a u-pick organic blueberry farm, The Blueberry Treehouse Cafe, a magical playground (shark and all!), Blueberry Jam concerts...with. more creative fun being planned for the future.
Rico and Jyl have such an amazing energy between them - Rico is the creative contractor while Jyl is the organized implementer and organizer - they compliment each other perfectly. I had so much fun learning from Rico and Jyl...and I am confident you will too! Enjoy my conversation with Rico and Jyl!
