It’s that time of the year again and, with the awesome weather we’ve been having, there’s no better time to visit a local farm to experience strawberry picking in south Brisbane with your family. Picking your own strawberries is so much fun – not only will your Brisbane Kids get to pick all of the strawberries they can handle while enjoying some vitamin D and fresh air, but they will also learn a bit about how strawberries are farmed and packaged before they reach the store. It’s an incredible experience for the whole family and the Chambers Flat Strawberry Farm is the perfect place to experience this!
Pick your own strawberries on Brisbane’s Southside
The Chambers Flat Strawberry Farm has sprouted, offering visitors on the Southside of Brisbane the opportunity to pick strawberries locally. Located in Chambers Flat, Chambers Flat Strawberry Farm grows strawberries from June to November annually.
Once the crops are ripe and plentiful, generally around late July, the patches are opened up to public strawberry picking. Your Brisbane Kids will love wandering the rows of strawberry plants searching for the biggest strawberry and picking all the ripe ones they find along the way.
Support and eat local
Chambers Flat Strawberry Farm is a third-generation family business that not only grows and sells strawberries but also has a delicious range of jams, dipping sauces and other yummy stuff for sale on site. Pre-picked strawberries are sold prepacked, or grab a container and pay to pick your own. You can also check out their strawberries at the Jan Powers markets in Brisbane.

Strawberry picking tips
- Expect the unexpected, which is code for wear old clothes, take a change of clothes and pack a plastic bag in case shoes are so muddy they can’t go back in the car (you will thank us for this one).
- Pack hats and put sun cream on the kids, strawberry picking is not a shady activity.
- Feed the kids first. You can pick and eat as you go so make sure the kids have nice and full tummies so they are less tempted to gobble as they go.
- Plan ahead and find out from friends and family if they would like to buy some fresh strawberries or use it as a chance to gift some strawberries.
