Tuckerberry Hill Berry Farm

Tuckerberry Hill Berry Farm has been run by the same family at Drysdale since 1980 and is the Bellarine Peninsula's only pick-your-own blueberry farm, with panoramic views towards Port Phillip Bay. The blueberry rows are netted and shaded, making for comfortable picking even in the middle of summer.

What You Can Pick

• Blueberries - mid December to early February
• Strawberries - mid October to December, then late February to late March

There is no entry fee reported; you pay by weight for what you pick.

Activities

• Cafe serving blueberry pancakes, muffins, ice cream and coffee
• Farm animals to meet and a local produce market
• Twilight picking sessions on summer evenings

Good to Know

The farm is highly seasonal: blueberry picking runs 9am-5pm daily over the summer school holidays and weekends thereafter, while strawberry picking runs on weekends in its two windows. Outside the season the orchard closes and produce is sold at the Bellarine Farmgate Market on Murradoc Road, Drysdale. No bookings required. Berries are weighed at the cafe on the way out, where the blueberry pancakes and muffins round off a morning in the rows.

Pro tip: a twilight session in January beats the heat and the crowds in one move.
