9 places to go berry picking around Vancouver this summer

Jun 25 2024, 5:45 pm

It’s berry season in BC and local farms will soon open up for u-pick so you can literally get your hands on all the berries you’re craving.

There are plenty of spots throughout the Fraser Valley and Lower Mainland where you can go out into the fields and pick a variety of local berries, from strawberries to raspberries to blueberries. The prices for u-pick berries are generally far better than what you’ll find in a grocery store, plus gathering berries yourself is a great summer activity.

Ready those berry pie recipes and make room in your freezer, because chances are you’ll be bringing home a bushel-full.

So grab a basket (or a bucket!), and a sunhat, and head out for one of the most summery of activities at our top picks for berry picking this season.
