Looking for a great PYO Farm? Craigies Farm welcomes thousands of visitors in summer and autumn who come to enjoy our ‘Pick Your Own’ experiences!
As we’re now heading into Winter, our pick your own is coming to an end for 2024 however we have apples waiting to be picked!
Advanced bookings aren’t needed to head into the farm shop upon arrival, where our team will book you in and provide punnets for picking.
Pick Your Own 2025 – will be available to book from May ahead of it reopening in June for our delicious fruits!
Great day, great fun, fab fruit!
In summertime children and parents love come to pick fresh strawberries, raspberries, cherries, currants, blackcurrants and gooseberries at Craigies PYO Farm to enjoy at home, to stock up their freezers or to make jam for the winter months.
In autumn, we welcome our ‘pumpkin pickers’ who come to the farm for the best pumpkins for carving and eating over Hallowe’en… and from early September to late October you can pick fresh apples from our orchard. Our apple orchard features varieties you won’t find in any supermarket!
How does it work?
Simply buy an entry voucher online ahead of your visit to the PYO farm to gain entry to the field. You can check out our availability report below to see what’s available prior to your visit.
On arrival, show your entry voucher in exchange for a basket and a map and we will guide you to the best field depending on what you would like to pick. All you have to do is pick your own fruit/veg, fill your basket then weigh and pay!
Entry to the field is from a pre-purchased voucher which is redeemable against the fruit/veg picked. We do not offer refunds where the fruit picked comes in under the cost of the voucher. Pre-purchased tickets are the only way to guarantee entry into the picking fields as walk-ins depend on fruit availability.
Please remember that all fruit that is picked by your party must be paid for on exit, all of our prices are displayed at the PYO entry point!
Pick & Play
This ticket allows you play in Little Farmers and includes a strawberry shaped shortbread biscuit, washed down with either a filter tea/coffee for the adults or Craigies Apple Juice for the kids! We ask that you head into Little Farmers first for some family fun play time together on our new timber equipment, then head out to the PYO field to pick the perfect fruit.
Please note, the only way to change your booking is to log into your account, you will need to create a customer account when purchasing your tickets. If you do not have an account you will not be able to change your ticket date or times.
