Fruit ReportUPDATED 11/02/25
Cherry season has now finished! It was a great season – just the right amount of rain & sunshine. We don’t see seasons like this very often. Thank you to everyone who visited & supported our family business!
We now have a new online booking system for cherry picking, which means that you can now manage your own booking. You can cancel or change the date right up to 24 hours before ( how good is that ). Online bookings helps us to monitor visitor numbers, providing a better experience for you.
During season times you can ‘Pick Your Own’ cherries or buy fresh picked berries & cherries from the farm gate.
Local Yarra Valley products are also for sale in the gift shop at 27 Parker Rd – biscuits, jams, relishes, pure honey & more. We now even have our own cherry fragrances & candles!
The fruit available for U-Pick this coming season will be mainly cherries ( mid November – early January) – subject to fruit availability.
Berry U-Pick will be limited this 2025-2026 season. We will be open on select days during season times, for strawberry, boysenberry & blueberry U-Pick. For various reasons we are not growing as many berries these days and are instead pouring most of our energy into the cherries. Please check the FRUIT REPORT– before visiting to see what’s in season & if berry picking is available. No online tickets for berry picking! Tickets at the door.
Our fairy themed ‘CHERRY BLOSSOM SHOW’ will now be an annual event held during the September school holidays at our George Rd orchard. Don’t miss the beautiful ‘show’ of flowers!
