The Berry Farm - BERRY
HARVEST
On
the Berry Farm we grow youngberries,
blackberries and blueberries (all excellent antioxidants and wonderfully
healthy!). The BERRY HARVEST SEASON for young-, black- and
blueberries on the SGAF - BERRY FARM starts on Saturday 7 November 2009
until 19 December 2009.
Every Saturday is OPEN DAY when you can come and PICK YOUR OWN
BERRIES from 08h00 until 13h00. IQF frozen berries are available
throughout the year
Remember
to phone beforehand if you plan to pick berries - to make sure which
berries are available. Bring your own containers and we 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 we IQF (individually quick frozen)
the berries. They are
loosely frozen and packed in 1kg and 5kg bags and in boxes of 12kg or
14kg. We sell the frozen berries throughout the year. We also make our
own liqueurs, jams and syrups from the berries so come and browse
around our farmstore.
