Pick your own raspberries in Wandin Yallock, VIC
Genuine soil-grown u-pick raspberry operation on Wandin Yallock Farms' property at 105 Quayle Road, Wandin Yallock. Entry, parking and payment are via the neighbouring Warratina Lavender Farm shop/tea rooms at the same address rather than a separate gate; the two are distinct businesses and Warratina itself does not offer picking, so this is listed under the raspberry operator's own name per the discovery note's suggestion. Confirmed via the operator's own site, a Warratina Lavender Farm Facebook post, and a third-party visitor guide. No match found among existing regional listings (nearest by geography are in Wandin East, different properties).
Swipe to see all months. Windows are typical for this state — call ahead to confirm what's ripe.
