We are OPEN, today Saturday
10 am until 5pm.
Gates open at 10 am
(unless people try to force them open manually
which will reset the system and can delay opening.
Closing again at 4:45).
Should also be open tomorrow, Sunday - same hours.
Ask me about these harnesses - they're actually really good!
Please don't chase the little chickens, they tire very easily
and their mother will (it turns out) take exception.
Please also note that we will increase PYO prices in February to $20/kg.
More suitable for experienced pickers who know how to stop walking and carefully open the bushes to look inside.
Gates will open from 10 am - 5 pm
The ground is a little uneven in places, from rabbit holes,
in fact they're possibly your greatest hazard
(apart from angry birds).

Also it's advisable to wear gumboots
(it's a farm).
Please remember to bring your favourite containers to take your berries home in.
Please leave your dog at home thank you! (not barking in your car,
or peeing on the blueberry bushes, or chasing the chickens, pheasants or peacocks).
We don't want any more "dear little doggies" killing anymore of our birds, thank you for your understanding.
👍❤️😊
It will be rather hot in there today,
best you don't wear black
(except for your gumboots)
and remember to bring a hat!
It's a bit wet in there from the rain last night,
after lunch might be better.
🙂
Remember when picking, to look closer at the bushes
- maybe even squat down a little (it's good for your glutes)
Please don't chase the little chickens, they tire very easily and their mother could take exception (she has before).
Boyds Blueberry Farm is a family-owned business nestled among hectares of beautiful Canterbury farmland. We've cultivated hundreds of berry bushes that blush blue with juicy blueberries just 15-minute drive southwest of Christchurch.
Our aim is to provide a wholesome pick-your-own blueberries experience for you, your friends and your family (or even your date 😉).
Our opening hours are usually (but not always) being Friday, Saturday and Sunday from 10am to 5pm.
Please leave your dog at home thank you! (not barking in your car, or peeing on the blueberry bushes, or chasing the chickens, pheasants or peacocks).

Pro Tip: If your'e coming from the city direction, the safest way to turn into our property is to drive past it another 200m to Alameda Place, do a U-turn there and double back.
(Don't believe Google maps - there is no car access from Alameda Place!).
