Ginger_Kitty 21-06-2005, 09:09 there's a PYO strawberry place on the road between Ecclesfield and the M1... alchresearch 21-06-2005, 11:49 There's also one at Hellaby (J1 M18 ), between Rotherham and Maltby. noseyrosie 21-06-2005, 12:35 I know Totley's closed but I think Dore is still open? npatchett 21-06-2005, 12:59 Was just thinkin about this very subject earlier as the train passed over the Ecclesfield/Chapeltown strawberry fields. Gotta love PYO! 1 for the basket - 1 for me! :hihi: :heyhey: foxy027 21-06-2005, 13:09 The one at Nether Lane,Ecclesfield int too bad Captain_Scarlet 21-06-2005, 13:17 Originally posted by noseyrosie I know Totley's closed but I think Dore is still open?

Don't tell me it has closed !! I have spent many summers at TFF !! mmmh strawberry farm ;) True I'm afraid. We did too. I believe Whirlow Hall Farm does a PYO but I don't think it has the variety of fruit Totley had. No more tayberry jam.........sniff..... jenhoppy 21-06-2005, 16:30 Im pretty sure that theres a pick ur own up at Mosborough i know there was a strawberry field not sure bout other fruit though.Remember taking my son few years ago,he loved it.Hope its still there for you,not too far from Rother Valley too if your in a car.You could go pick your strawbs then off to the Rother for a picnic.make a day of it.Bliss. desy 21-06-2005, 16:59 PYO at Multifrita at Clowne Mo 21-06-2005, 18:03 Originally posted by jenhoppy Im pretty sure that theres a pick ur own up at Mosborough i Hasn't been one there for a couple of years now. But Norton Fruit have PYO fields on the road to Whitwell near Van Dyks nursery. morkmindy 21-06-2005, 21:30 thanks for all the info - time now to do some jammin !!!! ls212121 21-06-2005, 22:01 Yep, Whirlow Hall Farm definately does pick your own, will probably be heading back there this summer. Proterra 22-06-2005, 08:23 Theres on advertising at Whitwell on road from J30 M1 to worksop -open now. owdlad 22-06-2005, 08:25 Originally posted by desy PYO at Multifrita at Clowne Be careful about going there, they buy some of the stuff they sell from wholesalers and pass it off as home grown :o bostonaire 10-08-2005, 05:14 Anyone know if theres a PYO fruit farm in sheffield or near by........cheers:thumbsup: owdlad 10-08-2005, 05:37 Try this thread nitelife http://www.sheffieldforum.co.uk/showthread.php?s=&threadid=45552&highlight=fruit+farms bostonaire 10-08-2005, 06:04 thanks owdlad for that ...cheers:thumbsup: Jon 16-08-2005, 18:57 Originally posted by noseyrosie I know Totley's closed but I think Dore is still open?
