🍓 Webb Ranch - Webb Ranch is located just a little north off the 280 at Alpine Road, there is signage and plenty of free parking.
Open Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday for organic blackberries and raspberries picking from 8am-1pm.
Entry fee is $4, free for kids four and under. Baskets provided and berries are $5/lb.
There is not a lot of shade, so try to get there earlier in the morning, and be prepared for some time in the sun.
We had fun picking our berried, eating them and learning where the berries come from (No, not from Trader Joe's :) ). A ripe berry will come off the vine easily, so make sure you only get the good ones. Be careful, the bushes are thorny. It is not a bad idea to have tweezers in your bag, I saw one mama today who could really use it :(
At the end of the lot there is a small bridge, and right after the bridge there is a fun big bounce house and shade for parents to chill.
We ended up getting to the exit with no berries in our baskets, because we ate it all, so we bought some boysenberries from the stand at the entrance.
Fun and healthy activity for all ages!
2017 is now open! Updated 6/18/17.
