There’s nothing like spending a little bit of time out in the country, and you can make the most of it by visiting a U-Pick farm while you’re there. We rounded up the best U-pick farms near Vancouver, so you don’t have to worry about making a drive to the Okanagan. That’s a trip better suited to checking out some wineries.
Here are 6 great U-Pick Farms near Vancouver.
Having started out in 1977, Maan Farms has become one of the best in the Fraser Valley for strawberries, blueberries and raspberries. They also have another road trip worthy activity- goat yoga. What’s better than yoga with goats? Picking some fresh berries right after.
Where: 790 McKenzie Road, Abbotsford
What’s the point of Johnny Appleseed trailblazing apples across the US if we can’t beat him at his own game in Canada? And, this farm was started by a guy named John. Coincidence? We think not. Don your best tin pot hat and head here during the fall, then enjoy the best dang apple pie you’ve ever had.
Where: 333 Gladwin Road, Abbotsford

Another farm that specializes in berries. Here, you can pick your own strawberries, blueberries, raspberries and blackberries. They also offer fresh produce, eggs, baked goods and ice cream. Blueberry pie with a side of ice cream? Don’t mind if we do.
Where: 23823 72 Avenue, Langley
These fine folks have set up shop at Taves Family Farms, so that spot is a real double whammy. The picking season opens on July 18, so mark it down on your calendar. Goji berries are a real health nut food, and we’re health nuts, so we approve.
Where: 333 Gladwin Road, Abbotsford
The real draw for Krause is that they also operate a winery (with a tasting room) at the same location. Craving a glass of wine to cool down after a couple of hours in the sun? These guys have got you covered. And! They’ve got golden raspberries!
Where: 6179 248 Street, Langley
By far the oldest farm on this list, having been in operation since 1885. If you can survive for more than a century, you’re doing something right. They also raise their own cattle, so BBQ lovers will be able to pick up some great beef.
Where: 2727 Westham Island Road, Delta
Boy, we cannot wait to get out there and earn some berries to pair with ice cream on a hot day. Now that’s summer living. Mix in some fantastic beef and maybe some local wine, and you’ve got a winning combo. Enjoy all these U-pick farms near Vancouver, folks!
