Harvest comb ORION 1560 — berry picker for blueberries and small berries, handheld collector

ORION 1560 harvest comb is a handheld berry picker designed for collecting blueberries and other small berries. The comb-style head separates fruit from stems and directs harvested berries into a receptacle, allowing a single operator to pick more steadily and with reduced handling. The tool is intended for home gardens, small farms and pick-your-own operations where gentle berry handling and simple manual operation are preferred.

Advantages

The lightweight, comb-style design reduces hand fatigue during prolonged use while maintaining a gentle touch that minimizes fruit damage. Its simple mechanical action requires no power source and can be used immediately without assembly. The open comb channels improve picking speed by guiding berries away from foliage and into a collection area, enabling more efficient harvesting compared with hand-plucking alone.

Suitable for

• Harvesting blueberries and other small, soft berries
• Home garden and backyard berry patches
• Small-scale farms and market growers
• U-pick (pick-your-own) operations where speed and gentle handling matter

Key specifications

• Handheld comb-style berry collector for manual harvesting
• Designed for small, soft berries such as blueberries
• Lightweight construction for extended use
• Simple mechanical operation; no batteries or power required
• Directs berries into a receptacle to reduce handling

How to use

Hold the harvest comb by the handle and position the comb head near a cluster of ripe berries. Gently draw the comb through the branches so that berries are separated from stems and guided into the collection area. Periodically empty the receptacle into a storage container to avoid overfilling and reduce pressure on the fruit. Use steady, even motions and avoid forceful pulling to prevent berry bruising.

Usage recommendations

For best results, harvest during dry weather and pick fully ripe berries. Clean the comb after each use to remove plant debris and reduce the risk of transferring pests or disease. Store the tool in a dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve material integrity.
