Plukkerij Framblij in Monster is a pick-your-own farm where you can harvest over 15 types of fruit and vegetables, including raspberries, strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, cherries, tayberries, grapes, courgettes, peppers and tomatoes. The season runs from early June until mid-autumn half-term, with the farm shop remaining open daily until November.

You must book a two-hour slot in advance through the website. Entry costs €4 per person, with children under two free. You pay for what you pick—typically €1.50 per 100 grams for fruit, while some vegetables are priced per item. The farm provides containers and scissors; you can take home as many boxes as you like. Picking is possible in two greenhouses and outdoors, with information boards explaining how to harvest each crop. After picking, you pay at the tea garden, where you can also buy coffee, tea, homemade muffins and ice cream. There are indoor and outdoor seating areas, a playground, a sandpit, a small petting zoo and a vintage second-hand shop.

The farm grows its produce organically, though it is not SKAL-certified. The on-site shop sells fresh fruit, homemade jams, syrups, honey and chilli sauce year-round. Group tours, children’s parties and corporate events can be arranged outside regular opening hours. The farm is wheelchair-accessible, with accessible parking and toilets.

What visitors say

Visitors come to pick strawberries, raspberries, grapes, tomatoes and courgettes, often with children. The farm is in greenhouses, so you can pick in any weather, but it can get hot inside. Most people find the staff friendly and helpful, though a few mention they can be strict about not eating before you pay. The produce is organic and tastes good, but the price – around €10.50 a kilo for most fruit, plus €4 entry per person – is a common complaint. Some say it’s worth it, others feel it adds up quickly, especially with children.

The farm works well for families. There are play areas, a sandpit and animals to see, and children enjoy picking. The picking slots are timed, which keeps it from getting too crowded, but some parents find an hour too short with small children. Later in the season, popular fruits can run out, so it’s best to go early in the day or at the start of the season. Payment is by Tikkie or cash.
