The best strawberry picking farm. The strawberries are the best I have had. Very organized and friendly staff. Very clean set up and reasonable prices. This farm is going to be my yearly tradition for strawberry picking. A must see.

Best Apple Crumble Pie EVER!!! Made in house to purchase warm and ready to eat. Second time here this year with my parents and I love it. The place is clean, friendly service, and great prices for pick it yourselfers lol. You can either walk or take the free wagon ride and there is a nice park and pony rides for the kids. They’ve also got wicked icecream and a cute little BBQ hut. Decent amount of tables for those who want to BBQ or just hang around. Best part of all is that its a short distance from home for us in Mississauga. Highly recommend! We did two full large baskets of strawberries and paid only $ 22.

This fun farm gets full points for snacks and junk food alone. It’s unbelievable how far some change in my pocket went to savour the snack food. The corn on the cob, dipped in butter, and then held at each end with pieces of corn husk was fantastic! And the pastry, so enjoyable. The atmosphere is quite laid back and relaxed compared to the hustle and bustle of a rural Ontario flea market where this type of food can be found as well. It is a scenic farm where you can walk around aimlessly which is always good for the soul. The drive there is scenic too, so what are you waiting for?

Andrews’ Scenic Acres is a solid pick your own place not too far away from Toronto. They have a huge farm with all types of berries, lots of tasty treats like yoghurt and baked goods and a wide variety of wines made from their own fruit. In the past we have been to a pick your own place called Young’s further down in the Niagara area. Young’s clearly has the most delicious raspberries and blueberries and you can pick something like four or five kinds of blueberries. Before I went there I had no idea there was more than one kind of blueberry. Andrews’ is definitely much more convenient to reach from Toronto and the fruit is nice. While it could have been the season we were not loving the raspberries so we skipped them altogether — I have had sweeter ones elsewhere — and they only had one variety of blueberry which was nice but not as good as others I have tried. So, this is a great place to go but you might be able to find even better fruit elsewhere.

Holy swarming orthodox children in religious garb, Batman! There’s approximately 7 ripe strawberries left at this farm yet it’s still teeming with families and children, mostly of the religious breeder variety. Avoid at all costs on weekends, especially long ones and don’t go towards the end of strawberry season. They’ll make you ride a dusty, exhaust spewing tractor to get to a field you could have *easily* walked to, just to find tiny, unripened little strawberries. The right thing to do would have been to close the field for re-growth or declare end of season, but I guess that wasn’t all that important to them. The raspberries weren’t in season yet but for some inexplicable reason people were picking them unripe, probably because there were no strawberries left. No one working here seemed to care. Many people were eating strawberries before they paid. Not tasting, eating. The farm market left a lot to be desired and the pre-picked stuff looked like it was picked several days earlier but was very expensive. Butter tarts had no ingredients labeled and they were selling canning accessories as if their berries were up to snuff. There’s an unsupervised playground area, petting zoo and all kinds of gimmicky things for children. If you’re looking for nice berries for jam making, look elsewhere. This place seems to have degenerated into a circus to entertain children for an afternoon and the fruit has just become the sideshow.
