Strawberry U-Pick Experience

Discover the joy of picking your own strawberries! At Rocky Creek, we proudly grow the premium Albion variety—famous for its large, sweet, and juicy berries. Our founder Mick spent over 50 years researching the perfect strawberry and once he found Albion there was no going back! We have proudly been growing the Albion variety for 20 years, which now brings visitors back year after year.

Stroll through our picturesque fields, surrounded by the beautiful countryside, as you fill your punnet with fresh strawberries, perfect for snacking, baking, or simply enjoying at home. With over 300,000 plants, each flush of blooms produces a new wave of ripe berries every six weeks, and strawberries typically ripen on a 3-day cycle—meaning there’s always something fresh to pick.

QUICK TIPS:

  • Choose Only the Red Strawberries: White ones won’t ripen after picking.
  • Leave the Calyx On: This helps keep your strawberries fresh.
  • Storage: Keep them in the fridge and enjoy within 4-5 days.
  • Cooler Bags Available in our retail store: Perfect for a long trip home.

Whether you’re here to make memories with loved ones or to savour a peaceful moment, our strawberry fields offer a hands-on adventure for everyone.

We grow multiple varieties to extend the season, ensuring that you can enjoy fresh blueberries throughout summer. With over 20 years of experience, our farm produces plump, juicy berries bursting with flavour.

Stroll through our blueberry rows and pick at your leisure. Remember to choose the deep blue berries for the sweetest taste—lighter or red ones can be a bit tart. These delicious, antioxidant-rich berries are perfect for snacking, smoothies, or baking.

  • Storage: Keep blueberries in the fridge to maximise freshness.

Blackberry / mixed berry U-Pick Experience

Approx late December (stay tuned for updates)

Late December through January (weather dependent) marks blackberry season at Rocky Creek! Our thornless hybrid blackberries are a unique cross between a raspberry and a blackberry, combining the full flavour of blackberries with the raspberry plant’s easy-to-pick structure.

Our ripe blackberries are deep purple to black—anything with red won’t be fully sweet yet, so make sure each berry is richly coloured. These juicy berries are ideal for fresh snacking, homemade jams, pies, or adding to your breakfast favorites.

QUICK TIPS:

  • Pick Only Dark-Coloured Berries: Red means they’re not quite ready.
  • Storage: Keep blackberries in the fridge for maximum freshness.
  • Family-Friendly Activity: Enjoy a hands-on experience perfect for all ages.
  • Cooler Bags Available in our retail store: Perfect for a long trip home.

After your picking session, treat yourself to a delicious dessert in our café and savour the sweetness of summer!
