Pick Your Own

The pick your own business began in 1989 with a crop of strawberries primarily, and a few raspberries. As demand grew, the area under cultivation expanded and a greater variety of fruits were offered, by the introduction of gooseberries, blackberries, tayberries, black and red currants.

Recently in response to new technology and the different varieties of strawberries now available, a whole new area was developed under plastic with controlled irrigation and improved strawing. There was a very favourable response to the changes from our customers and they were delighted with both the lengthened growing season and the improved size and flavour of the new fruit, Honeoye, Symphony and Florence have been especially popular.

To keep the children occupied there are the popular childrens ride on tractors normally available at the fruit hut.

Open from early June to August, every day 1pm till 5pm. Picked fruit available at other times.
