It's the time of the year in UK for the strawberries. So we decided to visit the local fruit farm last week, which was a good decision.
There is no entry fee, you simply pick your fruits and the pay for the weight you have picked. From the stall next to the car park you can get free containers/ baskets to collect the fruits.
There were loads of strawberries ready to pick. Vibrant, Elegance, Cupid and Symphony are the strawberry varieties they had in the farm. Out of them Cupid strawberry variety seems to be more sweeter than others. Following are some clicks I took while picking strawberries.

The cost for the strawberries were very cheap, comparing to the supermarket prices. Also Bearstone Fruit Farm have card payment facility, so it's very convenient.
Bearstone Fruit Farm also have Raspberries, Tayberries, Blackcurrants, Blackberries but on the day we visit they had only strawberries & gooseberries only. Might visit them again in few weeks time for the Raspberries.
