Pick Your Own Strawberries

2011 Pick Your Own Season

Thank you to everyone who came out to the fields this year and made 2011 such a wonderful strawberry picking season. We hope you made some memories and got lots of yummy berries. We look forward to seeing your again in 2012.

Pick Your Own Strawberries at Heeman's

There are few things that compares to the taste of a field fresh picked Heeman strawberry. The only thing better might be a fresh Heeman strawberry you picked yourself. For three generations now families have been coming to our fields to pick their own strawberries, share in a family experience and get in touch with nature.

PYO strawberries are a highlight of many families in our neighbourhood and we are happy to have been visit our farm, share a free wagon ride out to the field and experience how delicious a strawberry can be when you pick it yourself.

Our season usually opens for PYO in the middle of June and lasts till the middle of July, just in time for a post school celebration. We allow people to pick into your own container, as long as we can fit it on our scales, just have it weighed before hand so we only charge for berries, not baskets. We charge by the pound so you are only charged for what you picked. We offer baskets to people for a small charge if you don't bring any containers to pick into.

For your convenience there is jams and jam making products available on location so you can race home after picking to make fresh strawberry jam or sundae sauce.

The PYO field is located just before the greenhouse on the same side of the road (if your coming off Dundas St.) and is open at 8:00am to 8:00pm Monday to Friday, 8:00am to 5:00pm Saturday and Sunday.

We hope to see you out in the fields this season for your own unique experience!
