\n Firstly, you’ll want to know when the peak season for strawberry picking is. Typically it is June to July however, if the weather is good in the UK, farms will continue to sell ripened strawberries until the start of September. Please be aware that all farms will run PYO experiences at different times to one another.<\/p>\n

There are lots of other factors to take into account before planning your PYO fruit day out. Weather conditions are a biggie. If we’ve had lots of rainfall (like we’ve had recently) farms will close their strawberry-picking fields to allow time for the grounds to dry. Please always be wary that this factor could change your plans. Damn you British weather!<\/em><\/p>\n

Most farms offer more than just strawberry picking! So if you’re strawberry-picking plans have been foiled by the rain get in contact with the farms to see if there are any other fruit-picking activities or farm attractions that are still available. Fruit picking farms typically have a wide range of crops to choose from, all year round. Summertime is perfect for berries, Autumn is ideal for pumpkins and Winter is a wonderful time to hunt for Christmas trees!<\/p>\n

When picking fresh fruit make sure to pick the ripest ones. This may seem like a no-brainer but sometimes people may think if they pick less ripe fruit, the fruit will ripen after being picked and will last longer – this is not the case. So, avoid wasting crops and just go for the juiciest-looking fruit that you’d be happy to eat there and then.<\/p>\n

Entry fees will vary from farm to farm but most are free. If there are entry fees they are very low in price. Your carton\/basket of fruit will be weighed in the farm shop and you will pay for what you pick based on the weight. Make sure to only pick fruit that you will realistically eat. <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n \n <\/div>\n\n [vc_empty_space height=”25px”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”25px”][vc_column_text]\n

\n Keep your kids busy in nature, by collecting lots of different berries from strawberries to raspberries, gooseberries, blackcurrants and rhubarb too! They’ll love learning about soft fruits as they fill their baskets with all of their favourite fruits.<\/p>\n

Fruit is purchased at the Berry Barn kiosk or Farm Shop till based on weight. Entry charge will be added to the price of the fruit you have picked at the till. <\/div>\n \n
