Strawberry Picking

My wife and I always want to expose our children to fun things to do in and around Cape Town (and while we are on holiday). One idea that's always been circling our minds was to go and pick our own strawberries at Polkadraai Strawberry Farm, a quick drive from Kuils River towards Stellenbosch on the Stellenbosch Arterial (route M12 - Polkadraai Road). This was our funfilled Sunday afternoon. Hope you like it! John
