Berry Island Farms — Local services in Gilroy

Very rude attitude. This is our third time to go pick stawberries. First time was soft opening, the owner and staff were very nice, showed us how to pick and told us the time for strawberry/other berries picking. We felt welcomed and would love to come again. The week after, we went a bit late and it was told sold out. The owener and staff were also nice. But today, we went there and were treated with extremely BAD attitude. We made a left turn to the farm at speed 15 mile/hr. We slowered down more after being told by a guy at the gate who were watering the muddy road.

I opened the window and apologized for our speed but he started scolding at us, used words "crazy", "ridiculous" etc...

It was actually you. as the farm owner, being very rude and ridiculous scolding at us especially in front...

I love how it's a pretty small place, yet has several different things to pick, so the kids don't get bored and we always end up with a great haul. The harvest is naturally somewhat weather dependent, especially the raspberries, which have been pretty sparse. But every berry is absolutely delicious, and their local honey, and their jams and other produce...

We came for berry picking on Saturday morning and loved the variety of berries! It was early June so they had 6 types of berries available. It was fun trying new berries I’ve never heard of and ended up making berry jam with half of them and ate the rest fresh. They had plenty of strawberries and blackberries but it was the end of season for raspberries so only picked a dozen of them. You pay for what you pick - $5/pound for strawberries and $10/pound of...
