Bring your whole family to Redberry Farm, where the rows and rows of sweet strawberries are only part of the appeal. Pick some of these delicious fruits then take part in some of the other activities on the farm. Child-friendly watersports, a giant maze and a miniature train are just a few of the ways you can have fun here.
Redberry Farm was founded in 2001 on the site of an old dairy farm. Visit the commercially active farm today to see where over 400 tons (362 tonnes) of fruit are picked and processed into jams, syrups and other products.
Become a berry farmer for the day and pick some of your own strawberries from the long rows of plants. Spend as long as you want searching through the leaves for the ripest berries. At Redberry Farm they grow the fruit year-round, even outside of the peak season between September and January.
Children can splash around on the pond in bumper boats or paddle boats. Step into an inflatable ball and roll around on the water. Ride the Redberry Express, a miniature train for kids that runs through the park.
Find your way through one of the largest hedge mazes in the Southern Hemisphere. Reach all seven stations in the maze for a prize at the end.
Animal lovers can meet some of the farm’s furry residents. Feed some of the friendly rabbits that live here or take a pony ride around the strawberry fields.
Don’t forget to buy some of the farm’s produce. The farm stall not only sells conserves and other strawberry products, but also mugs, tea sets and other berry-themed items. Relax in the Red Shed Coffee and Berry Bar while the children play. Sample cocktails made with berries grown on the farm.
All of Redberry Farm’s activities are weather dependent and many require adult supervision. Drive to the farm, which is only 3 miles (5 kilometers) north of George Airport, and park on the lot here. The farm is open from Monday to Saturday and activities are individually priced.
