Some of my best memories from my childhood are berry picking at U-Pick farms around Edmonton (one time we even convinced our mom to let us bring home a cat!). As my kids grow older I hope to make this one of their fondest memories too (minus a cat) as well as yours.
Depending on the weather U-Pick season generally goes June/July-October. Berry picking season in and around Edmonton generally starts in mid July **fingers crossed**
Some things to consider when going to U-Pick farms around Edmonton
- Call first as some require appointments or strongly suggest appointments. Plus crop conditions may not be favourable.
- Bring cash – Even if they accept debit or credit, what happens if it doesn’t work?..out on a farm…..you get my point 🙂
- Bring snacks & water
- Bring a cooler to keep your pickings fresh for the drive home.
- Wear a hat & sunscreen – you will realize when its too late that you have gotten sun stroke or sun burn
- Wear good shoes & comfortable clothing- there is lots of bending and moving around.
- BRING YOUR OWN PAILS FOR BERRY PICKING (ice cream pails work great)
