The Berry Farm






On The Berry Farm they grow youngberries, blackberries and blueberries (all excellent antioxidants and wonderfully healthy!). Harvest time is from the beginning of November until approximately the 20th of December for the youngberries and blackberries. Blueberry season is from the end of November until mid January.

Come and enjoy a unique experience as you pick your own berries. Remember to phone beforehand if you plan to pick berries - to make sure which berries are available. Bring your own containers and they will weigh the containers and then charge per kilogram for the berries picked.

Overall, the best time to pick is from mid November until the second week in December. During harvest time they IQF (individually quick frozen) freeze the berries. They are loosely frozen and packed in 1kg and 5kg bags and in boxes of 12kg or 14kg. They sell the frozen berries throughout the year.

They also make their own liqueurs, jams and syrups from the berries so come and browse around the farmstore.
