Welcome to Scaddows Farm PYO: A Fruitful Family Tradition

For over three decades, Scaddows Farm PYO has been a beacon of family values and agricultural excellence. Regardless of the weather, we open our gates each season to share the joy of picking exceptional soft fruits amidst the breathtaking landscapes of South Derbyshire. Our star attractions include our renowned strawberries, succulent raspberries, flavorful blackcurrants, vibrant redcurrants, and plump gooseberries.

A Natural Retreat in South Derbyshire

Nestled in the rolling hills of South Derbyshire, Scaddows Farm PYO is not just a place to pick fruit but a haven for families to create lasting memories. Surrounded by nature, it's the perfect spot to bask in the sun and enjoy the scenic beauty.

Seasonal Delights at Our Farm Shop

Our seasonal Farm Shop, opening its doors in May/June, is a treasure trove of high-quality products sourced locally from Derbyshire, Leicestershire, and the Midlands. We take pride in offering the finest products at great value, complemented by a friendly and personalized service.

How It Works

  1. Arrival: Simply choose your day and follow the signs to our ample PYO car parking area. No entry fee is required.

  2. Containers: Pick up containers upon entry for a small charge. Our friendly staff will guide you to the best picking spots of the day. Remember, no sampling in the field – all fruit picked must be paid for.

  3. Weighing: Head to the field stall after finishing your picking adventure. A staff member will weigh your carefully selected fruits, and you'll be charged based on the competitive price per kilogram.

  4. Payment: Once you've paid for your fruit and container, they're yours to savor. Please be mindful to pick only what you intend to purchase.

At Scaddows Farm PYO, we believe in not just offering exceptional produce but in creating an immersive and delightful experience for every visitor. Join us in the fields for a day of family fun, sunshine, and the joy of picking your own fresh, delicious fruits.
