Tips for strawberry picking in the UK

Plan your visit

Summer is a peak season for strawberry picking. To ensure you have a lovely variety of berries to pick, check the online availability of the berries at the nearby strawberry farm.

Bring your own containers

Bring reusable containers from home to help the environment and save money. Some strawberry farms charge an additional fee for containers.

Select ripe strawberries

The last thing you want is unripe berries. Pick only red, juicy strawberries and let the green ones continue to grow. This way, you’ll get tasty strawberries, and someone else can pick the other berries when they’re ready.

Avoid food waste

Only pick what you can consume. Picking more than you can eat or cook is a waste of food.

Follow farm guideline

Many strawberry patches are located on working farms, so the guidelines in place protect the crops, animals, and visitors. Follow the farm guidelines to have a safe and enjoyable time.

Do not eat strawberries as you pick them

Although it can be tempting to tuck into the strawberries as you pick them, it’s worth noting that many farms do not allow this, and it can damage your health as these berries have not been cleaned. After you purchase them, take them back to your campsite or home and wash them thoroughly before eating.

Wear comfortable clothing

Wear clothing suitable for the outdoors, as strawberry patches can be muddy. A good pair of walking boots is ideal, as well as layers in case it gets cold.

Stay hydrated and protected

Strawberry picking can be thirsty work. To stay refreshed and hydrated, always keep a water bottle on hand. Since you’re likely to be outdoors, wear sunscreen or protective clothing to protect your skin from UV rays.
