Title: Cherry, Strawberry, Peach Picking in Brentwood, CA, US

Preparation: Early May, extended to mid-June is a great time for fresh fruit picking. There are many farms in Brentwood, California. you can pick your own fruits including cherries, strawberries, peaches, apricots, etc. Recently we visited the following 3 farms and picked delicious strawberries, cherries, peaches. 1. Chan's Fruit Stand: Strawberries. This is the best strawberry we've ever had. Super sweet! Address: 2600 B Walnut Blvd, Brentwood, CA 94513 2. Nunn Better Farms - Cherry U-Pick. Address: 2777 Sellers Ave, Brentwood, CA 94513 It's very popular 3. Mike's U-Pick Peaches: Address: 3230 Concord Ave, Brentwood, CA 94513 The cherries, peaches $3.5 / lb, strawberry $2.75 / lb. The farms provide boxes or buckets for customers to pick fruits. The open hours, the price may vary. Suggest you call them to ask before you go. You do not need to make appointments in advance. Parking: No problem finding parking space near or in the fields. Suggestion: 1. Go there as early as possible, so you will have enough time to go to multiple farms to pick different fruits. From the Bay Area, it takes about 1 hour 20 minutes or so to get there. Typically Open hours for farms 9 am - 7 pm but it may vary 2. Bring cash. Some farms only accept cash. 3. Wear multi-layer clothes. In May, noon is quite hot. 4. Bring your own picnic-style lunch or snack. 5. Bring water, drinks. It would be good to bring your own gallon of water to wash your hands after your picking your fruit, and paper towels. Most farms do provide portable bathrooms, hand sanitizer but there is no water available in the fields. 6. Parking is not a problem. Near the fields, there are parking slots although they might be rough and dusty. 7. If you have a small stool or small ladder, it may be helpful when you pick cherries.

General opinion: It's absolutely worth going there for a daily trip to pick your own fresh fruits.
