One of the gems of Melbourne providing a fabulous pick your own berry experience. For about $12 you can head down and take 1/2 a kilo of whatever berries you like home. If you pick more, you just pay $12kg for any kilo over. It is literally one of our favourite family activities.

Approximate cost: $12

A great day out for grown ups and kids. Tis berry farm has raspberries, blackberries, cherries, strawberries and blueberries throughoout the year of varying types. They don't use sprays and the prices are great. We usually find a patch in the middle of the strawberries and feast on them whilst we're there. The cafe is also quite nice

Blue Hills offers a 'u pick' fruit and berry experience where you can pick your own fruit and berries. The farm has two operations one on Parker Road and the other of Chapman Road depending on what you want.

The farm is located in Silvan which is short drive from the Eastern Suburbs and the drive there is quite pleasant along very scenic roads.

At the farm you can pick a variety of fruit and berries such as cherries, raspberries, blueberries, and other assorted products.

If you are lucky and the season is right you can pick a variety of fruit at one time.

The staff is friendly and helpful, but sometimes the staff is overwhelmed by the number of customers and there may be a short wait to pay and get to the picking area.

The fruit is of high quality and as it is freshly picked - perfect.

The pricing is a little complicated as there is an 'entrance' fee which applies to the type of fruit being picked.

We found that the blueberries offer the best bargain as the $15 'entrance fee' includes one kilogram of fruit which compared to supermarket fruit alone on price is a bargain. Quality is of course much higher than the supermarket products.

The farm also offers a sales shed on Parker Road which has fresh and frozen products. The cherries are very high quality, sweet, and juicy.

In my opinion a great place to spend time picking your own fruit.
