Silvija and John Pipiras own and operate Bird Haven Blueberry Farm in Southampton. They have been producing pick-your-own flowers and blueberries since 1985. They also make and sell homemade fruit pies, which are now their biggest seller.

The Pipiras' have been active members of the "Be a Local Hero" campaign in Western Mass., sponsored by Community Involved in Sustaining Agriculture (CISA). Bird Haven Blueberry Farm is a participant in the Farm Viability Enhancement Program and last year they were recognized by the Department for their Buy Local efforts.
