Macca's Farm

The perfect little pit-stop on your way to the beaches of Bass Coast, the 'pick your own' strawberry field at Macca's Farm is easy-picking fun. They have a whopping 1km of waist-high picking rows, ideal for young, old and wheelchair pickers. While you're there, enjoy lunch in the on-site cafe, whose seasonal menu of farmhouse staples, breakfast classics and vegetarian options is created using all local produce.

Be sure to take home some goodies from the on-site produce shop which stocks hydroponic vegetables grown on the farm, along with free-range pork and beef, locally sourced free-range lamb, honey, jams, cheeses, biscuits and loads of fresh fruit. Best picking time - September - April.
