Where to Pick Strawberries in Milton Keynes - 2023
Summer is finally here and that means so is PYO season!
A trip to a Pick Your Own farm is a great idea for a family day out and as a plus, you come home with a punnet full of Strawberries, Raspberries, Blackberries or lots of other lovely fruit. It doesn’t have to stop at fruit either - many farms are branching out into offering PYO veg and pumpkins into the Autumn as well.
Put on your sunscreen (or raincoat…this is England after all) and head to one of the following farms to fill a punnet full of goodness!
I’ve listed the PYO farms from nearest to furthest from Milton Keynes.
