Too many people, not enough berries, no fun, not worth it. If you're not there in line before it opens don't bother coming at all. read more

Wanted to try a different activity on the weekend and stumbled upon this cute farm in the Peninsula where you can pick your own berries! Berry picking is seasonal and it's currently closed, I believe** During peak season, hours are from 8am - 11am so make sure you arrive early! My friends and I arrived at 10 near the tail end of the season and there was plenty of parking (a small, unpaved lot!) and space to pick berries. There are signs indicating which rows correlate to which berries (I didn't know there were so many varieties) and the farm offers both black and raspberries. One thing i really liked was that they have specific rows they recommend visitors pick from. We didn't see the signs are first so we ended up picking from the back/middle rows, but the berries were all so sweet and juicy. I'd definitely recommend people checking this out for a quick, cute weekend date with friends or loved ones :) read more

U Pick at Webb Ranch - Pick Your Own Farms Near Me - Portola Valley, California

Fruit picking is an interactive way to develop an appreciation for food--how it's grown, how it gets processed. We'd happened to learn about Webb Ranch at the tail end of berry season, but decided we'd give it a shot anyway. They've got plenty of parking in the dirt lots out front. When you walk in, you'll grab a basket or a box and head right into the fields. You'll fill your basket with your favorite berries and pay on your way out. Their payment model consists of a per-person entry fee ($4 for adults) and a per pound fee for the berries. While there, you're allowed to eat as much as you want, so have at it! Because we'd caught the very last weekend of the season, there wasn't much to choose from. Many of the earlier rows either lacked any vines altogether or were just barren and without berries. Fortunately, the ranch had provided a sign with a few key rows to focus on, so our group made a beeline for the back. We found that the riper the berry, the more easily they were plucked. The best berries were ones that were dark and shiny. Be wary of berries that were half-eaten and/or enshrouded in spider webs!! It was quite the treasure hunt to gather the best ones for our baskets. We came across a few little kids towing wagons with their haul behind them. They were so cute! I found that many of the berries that were tucked away in the middle, between the leaves were the ones that were more often overlooked. By the top of the hour, we were sweaty and ready to go home. If I were to return, I'd highly consider choosing a date in the middle of the berry season and starting earlier in the day to avoid the relentless summer CA heat. If you're a fruit-lover like me, berry picking is a great activity to celebrate the summer! read more

I came here mid august And the berries were so sweet! It's such a fun experience. It doesn't take long to fill up baskets but if you want to take your time, maybe give yourself an hour. They kick everyone out when they close. read more

I came here to pick organic blackberries and boysenberries and had a pleasant experience. I made an online appointment the day before for a 50 minute time frame. I easily found parking and checked in quickly. During check-in, I was given options for a basket or container and a wagon to use without charge. ThThere is a sign to let me know which rows had ripe berries and the rows were marked through the middle route. There were 50+ rows of berries, including an extended back section. I paid at the very end and hand sanitizer was readily available at the check-in and check-out areas. Masks are required to enter. There is no charge for kids 0-4 and seniors 65+. Everyone else is $4 per person and the berries were $5.50 per pound. Parking is free. One improvement would be to also mark the rows at the ends instead of just the middle so I can avoid having to walk through the middle, which is the route most people take. read more

We came here to do some berry picking and we truly got the experience. The ranch is conveniently located off of the highway and is really easy to find! The check in process was pretty easy. I love how they outlined what rows had ripe fruits and what suits they were. The ranch is big enough to spread out and social distance. It's a four dollar entrance fee and I believe either 4.50 or 5.50 a pound for each pound you pick! The berries were a great experience and honestly great for anyone for any age. I love that you can escape your home and get fresh air and do this activity and you get to take it home as your treat! Very family friendly and I would recommend anyone to go ahead and try this experience out. read more

Check website to know when the season starts. Got here first day of season. Several tired where the fruit wasn't ripe yet. Funny to see all these yuppies that would pay a premium at whole foods for berries come and pick them instead. Still a great activity for children to see where their food comes from though. Pleasant valley scenery with good parting space although it got packed early in the day with a bunch of minivans Fun educational experience and some tasty ollalie berries to take home read more

Berry picking at Webb Ranch is a really fun activity. You'll see people of all different levels of seriousness in attendance -- from those grabbing a box for a quick snack with their kids -- to people wheeling around a cart stacked with dozens of boxes. It's a great experience for kids and a fun date. They're only open for part of the year. We went in August, which I *think* was a bit late in the season for it: there were plenty of berries to pick, but we had to find good spots for them. They have a few varieties, but most of them seem like blackberries or raspberries (and close variants). They also had an aisle of cherry tomatoes. Price was $4 for entry, and then $5.50 per pound of berries (and they supply you with nice little cardboard boxes for them). read more

We went during the week, and it was pretty empty ... I think it is a bit out of the way compared to other U Pick places. Lots of ripe, juicy, sweet olalliberries and easy to pick. I wish they had other berries, but nothing else was ready for picking when we were there. We had a great time. Highly recommended ... read more

Fun place for families. Great experience for little kids. Location wasn't that hard to find. Memorable way to spend your summer with family and friends. read more

U Pick at Webb Ranch - Blackberries - Pick Your Own Farms Near Me - Portola Valley, California

Super overpriced - Got back from paying $19 for a pint of berries after paying a $4 entrance fee per person when the berries were all picked over and they should have closed Crowd management is non-existent. We had reservations for an earlier week which got moved due to lack of berries. Ok, fine. So we waited 3 weeks to come. They seem to have rescheduled two sold out days to the same day plus opened to everyone regardless of reservation. They told us to come at the same time, which was late morning, and by the time we got there the crowds had been through and there were zero berries. Really disappointing and poor management in a drought/hot year. Seems like a money grab to get as many people through at $4 per person even though they didn't have the inventory to support it read more

Totally awesome time. The young ladies working there were friendly, but please advise them to tell guests about the whiteboard mentioning what rows were ripe and the board explaining the different types of berries. I would have been more efficient with my limited time if I knew what number rows to focus on. Came home with a lot of blackberries and golden raspberries. Red raspberries were tough to find. Also the tomatoes were green and not ready. I go a couple cherry tomatoes that were ripe though. I will be back. read more

A beautiful place to pick fresh berries and tomatoes. You grab some cartons and then head to the field to pick as much as you want. The crop was plentiful and full of ripe berries everywhere. Once you're done picking your crop you take it to the front and it's weighed. I can't recall the prices but it wasn't unreasonable. Such a fun stop on a road trip. read more

Wonderful berry picking - well organized, beautiful setting, and delicious berries. A fun experience for all ages!

Lots of different kinds of berries, easy to get to and get the crowd is manageable. Delicious sweet ollaliberies. Excellent!

Experience was disappointing. Our family of four (2 adults and 2 five-year-olds) went on Saturday, July 4, 2020. They give you a 50-minute slot to pick (by appointment only for social distancing). The entrance fee is $4 per person if you're over 4 years old. Our slot was at 11am. They had a white board with "good rows" and asterisks next to "most abundant". We went to the recommended rows and there was not much worth picking--a lot of it was dried up. We ended up with a little over 2 pounds (note: weight included the cardboard cartons as the big cardboard carton and the three small cardboard boxes inserted in it were weighed with the berries). Including the entrance fees, this came to $28.65 (so averaged to roughly $14/pound including entrance fees). When I told the woman at check out that there wasn't really much there to pick -- she said "yea, later in the day, a lot of it is already picked." Despite the convenient location, I would not recommend this place unless you can get the first slot in the morning after they have not been opened for a few days for picking. read more
