The best spots to go strawberry picking around Perth this spring
The sun’s finally come out (well, almost), and you’ve already conquered all the walks, day-trips, and watering holes around Perth? Lucky you, it’s coming up on peak strawberry-pickin’ time!
Below are a few great options to get you started, but remember it’s a highly seasonal business, so we recommend hitting them up beforehand just to double check when they’re open – most farms’ pick your own seasons run from September through to December, but can start as late as the end of October.
And remember to slip, slop, slap!
Hoang Le’s Strawberries
Only a short trip northeast of Perth, Hoang Le’s rock some of the best strawberries going around – plus some great deals for any jam-makers out there. It’s still pretty early in the season so they’ve only got punnets to buy at the moment, but keen an eye on their Facebook to see when they open the farm up to the public (usually around November/December). Last season, picking was $15 per box, with no entry fee.
120 Trichet Road, Wanneroo
Kien’s Strawberry Farm
This family-run business has been operating for over 20 years, so you know you’ll only be getting the freshest in the west. Not yet open for the season, last year boxes were $15 with zero entry fees. They can also be bought pre-loaded – but where’s the fun in that? As always, we recommend you keep an eye on their Facebook page to double check their opening times.

Sue & Tim’s Fresh Farms
Sue & Tim’s out in Wanneroo unfortunately isn’t open for picking juuuuust yet, but one gander at their Facebook and you’ll be heading out there anyway, we reckon! As well as juicy strawberries, these guys also grow plenty of other delicious fresh goodies, so you can keep your fridge well-stocked. Last season’s picking was only $15 per 3kg box with no entry fee – make sure you bring cash.
