Strawberry Picking & Picnic Day (Family-Friendly)


A relaxed day out in the countryside, picking strawberries and spending some time outdoors together.

We’ll meet at Spring Gardens Nursery — a family-run pick-your-own farm at the foot of the South Downs with a café and plenty of space to enjoy the surroundings.


This is a casual meet-up — everyone picks at their own pace, and we’ll gather afterwards for a relaxed picnic.


What to expect

We’ll head into the fields to pick strawberries straight from the plants, then find a spot to sit down and enjoy a picnic together.

There’s also a café and farm shop on site if you’d prefer to grab a coffee or something to eat.

It’s a simple, easy-going day — especially nice for families.
