There is no charge to pick, we simply ask that you please consider donating to one of our chosen charties after picking - details below.
The farm is 100% charity donation only - After picking, please scan the on site QR code or return to this page to make a donation to one of the charities listed below.
There is no charge for picking at Muir Fruit Farm. Instead, we ask visitors to support one of our chosen charities by making a donation after their visit.
The fruit you have picked is a premium crop that is rarely available in the UK. Similar specialist berries often sell for several pounds per punnet, and many visitors take home the equivalent of multiple punnets.
Our fruit is grown with great care on our family farm. While we are not certified organic, we do not use pesticides, herbicides or fungicides on the crop.
If you have enjoyed your visit, please consider making a donation that reflects the value of the fruit you have taken home and helps support the important work of International Justice Mission and Lighthouse Aberdeen.
Suggested donations:
Small container: £5
Medium container: £10
Large container or family picking: £15–£20+
Of course, any donation is greatly appreciated.
If a donation would cause financial difficulty, please simply enjoy the fruit as a gift from our family farm. We want everyone to be able to enjoy these wonderful fruits, regardless of their circumstances.
Thank you for your generosity and support.
