🇬🇧 London Life | Strawberry Picking? All-You-Can-Eat Style! 🍓
This year, British strawberries are unbelievably sweet—thanks to months of sunny days and cool nights, perfect for sugar buildup in the berries. ⚠️ Heads up: Many London-area farms opened strawberry-picking slots, but popular ones booked out fast. We ended up at Cammas Hall Farm (less crowded = more berries!). Book tickets early! ✨ Silver lining: Arriving at noon, we found tons of ripe strawberries still available. The farm also offers: • Coffee, pizza, and snacks • A kids’ zone (play area + "Jurassic Park" section) • Photo ops galore 🍓 Meet "Sonata" Strawberries: Deep red, juicy, and intensely flavorful—perfect for eating fresh or making jam. The elevated growing beds mean: • Easy picking (no bending!) • Fewer pests = cleaner berries • Unlimited sampling (staff don’t mind if you snack while picking!) 💓 Our haul: • Filled 2 baskets (£30 worth) • Plans: Eat one batch, turn half into jam, freeze the rest for milkshakes! 🍒 Coming soon (June-August): Blueberries, cherries, raspberries, blackberries, corn, and pumpkins! 📌 Address: Cammas Hall Farm, Needham Green, CM22 7JT 🎟️ Entry: £2/person 💰 Price: £8.3/kg (eating onsite = free!) 🚗 Transport: Drive only (~1hr from London; no direct transit). #LondonWeekends #StrawberrySeason #PickYourOwn #UKFarms #SummerInEngland
