   I don't recommend this place! There are much better farms in Hamilton. Although they have good berries, their attitude isn't pleasant, especially the behavior of the elderly lady there!

   I WILL NEVER, EVER RETURN TO THIS FARM AGAIN! The rude and unpleasant behaviour of the elderly cashier completely ruined our berry-picking experience. We used to make the 2.5-hour drive from North Auckland to visit this farm a few times a year. Today, for the first time this season, we went for the "Pick Your Own" activity. However, when we arrived, it started pouring rain. After travelling such a long way, I didn’t want to leave empty-handed. Considering they charge an additional $4 for the "Pick Your Own" experience, I assumed it would be fine to eat some berries while picking them and then pay for what we collected. In the pouring rain, I headed into the orchard and, as usual, ate a few berries while gathering others in the bucket. The rain was so heavy that picking was challenging. Within minutes, the elderly woman came outside, called me over, and said, "We’re watching you from the window, and you’re eating too much!" Apparently, they were counting how many berries I had eaten even though I had been there for less than five minutes! What shocked me even more was that she went and complained to my wife, who was sitting under shelter with our two-year-old, saying, "Your husband is eating too many berries!" I was speechless. We could have easily bought these berries cheaper from Pak'nSave in Auckland. The only reason we made the long drive was to enjoy the experience of picking and eating berries fresh from the orchard. Unfortunately, this turned into one of our worst memories. Their rude and disrespectful behaviour left us deeply upset, and WE WILL NEVER RETURN TO THIS FARM AGAIN!!

   Delicious Pick Your Own Raspberries and Boysenberries ($4 entry + $18 per kilo)! They also sell real fruit icecream for $7.5 and a range of other products. Staff are very friendly (as is the cute dog). Now is a fantastic time to visit, though the blackberry season has finished. So much quality berries available! Highly recommend the experience if you're in the area.

   Like meeting up with family. Have been going there with my son for at least 30 years, he takes me now. Staff remember us and are helpful beyond expectation and the fruit are plentiful, easy to pick and taste yum.

   We had an amazing time here with the little ones. We could roam and pick in the designated areas. Raspberries., boysenberries and blackberries. Huge amount left on the vines, even after Christmas. Kids ate as they picked. Spent about 1.5 hrs here easy for young ones. Then had a fresh Berry ice cream. No strawberries to pick here. $15 per kilo but they wavered the pick your own fee. Recommend this for families all ages. Very large ice creams but kids didn't mind. Oh and take a hat as it can get hot. Raspberries don't have thorns or spikes like other fruit so best for young children.
