FAQ’s

Do I need to book?

No booking required for PYO with the exception of The Pumpkin Patch in October.

Do you allow dogs?

We allow dogs on a lead in our cafe and outdoor areas including our tabletop fields. Dogs are not allowed in our in crop fields, which includes all pumpkin fields.

What are your opening times?

We are open Tuesday-Saturday 9.30-5.30pm and Sunday 9.30-4pm. Our cafe closes at 5pm on weekdays. Last entry to our PYO fields is one hour before we close.

What do you have to pick?

We regularly update our website & social media for new crops – it’s best to explore our pick your own page before your visit. Occasionaly we have to close our fields at short notice due to a crop shortage, we always update our social media by 8am if we think a field will be closed for the whole day.

Can I bring my own punnets?

Yes, and we encourage you to! In fact we offer a small discount to anyone that brings their own. Make sure you weigh it before entering the fields at our self-service station.

Lots of smaller tubs are recommended so you don’t quish the soft fruit.

We also have plenty of punnets and trays on hand in case you don’t have your own.

Can I order a large selection of fruit for an event?

Yes we can supply large quantities of fruit for weddings, caterers, parties, events and more. Please contact us via email [email protected] with the date and numbers of guests so we can adivse.

When do you close?

We are open until the end of October every year and we reopen for four weeks at Christmas – exact 2023 dates TBC. Our strawberries will also be open for picking until the end of September.

 

Wholesale

Are you looking to stock your shop or event with our delicious fruit and vegetables? We sell all our produce at wholesale so you can retail at a competitive price.

Call Paul for the best wholesale price on 07966 246 388.

We supply the strawberries in 454gm punnets in returnable outer trays. This is enough for three people, you’ll be reasonably generous at that, depending upon what else is on offer.

We would suggest a greater emphasis on raspberries for your private parties and events (when they are in season). They are a bit more expensive but have little or no preparation and can be poured straight from the punnet into bowls. You can collect on the day of your event as it is important to have fruit as fresh as possible and it will be better kept chilled in our cold store than a domestic fridge
