Fruit picking in Albany & the Great Southern

In November, blueberries are picking in Albany & Great Southern. We list 2 farms across this region — browse the listings below and call ahead to confirm what's ripe before you travel.

WA's south coast, about 4–5 hours from Perth, runs a short summer berry season across two small operations, both of them blueberry growers. West of Albany at Lowlands, Blueberry Lakes opens for a brief January–February picking season, and at nearby Youngs Siding, Eden Gate Blueberry Farm runs a similar December–February window, Thursday to Monday, 10:30am–4pm, with a cafe on site. Both are genuinely seasonal — neither opens outside its short summer window — and there's no pick-your-own strawberry patch or orchard fruit listed in the Great Southern at present, so treat this as a berry region rather than an all-round picking one.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I pick strawberries in Albany?

We don't currently list a pick-your-own strawberry farm in Albany or the wider Great Southern — both of the region's picking farms are blueberry growers. The nearest strawberry patch we list is Smashastrawb at Smith Brook, near Manjimup in WA's South West, a few hours' drive north-west of Albany. It opens on weekends during the strawberry season, roughly 10am–1:30pm, when the fruit and conditions allow, so call ahead before making the trip.

Where can I pick blueberries near Albany?

Two farms offer u-pick blueberries: Blueberry Lakes at Lowlands, open a short January–February season, and Eden Gate Blueberry Farm at Youngs Siding, open roughly December to February, Thursday to Monday, 10:30am–4pm. Both are closed outside their summer season.

Is fruit picking near Albany open year-round?

No — both listed picking farms run short summer windows only: roughly December to February at Eden Gate Blueberry Farm, Youngs Siding, and a January–February season at Blueberry Lakes, Lowlands. There's nothing to pick in the Great Southern outside that summer stretch, so call ahead before visiting, as exact dates shift with the season.
