Farm-Fresh Fun

What's Picking, When

Fruit picking is gloriously seasonal — the trick is matching the farm to the month. That's half of what you're booking us for: we know what's ripe where, and we'll point your day at the right farm.

🍓

Strawberries (Nov–Apr)

Sunny Ridge on the Mornington Peninsula is Australia's best-known strawberry farm — pick a punnet and follow it with their strawberry ice cream.

🍒

Cherries (Nov–Jan)

Cherryhill Orchards and the Yarra Valley cherry farms run picking through the summer season — the shortest and sweetest window of the year.

🍑

Stone Fruit (Dec–Mar)

Rayner's Orchard near Woori Yallock grows over 450 varieties — their tractor tour lets you taste peaches, nectarines and plums straight from the tree.

🍎

Apples (Feb–May)

Autumn apple picking in the Yarra Valley and Red Hill rounds out the season with crisp mornings and full crates.

👨‍👩‍👧

Made for Families

Flat, easy orchard rows, tractor rides and tastings — toddlers to grandparents all get a job to do.

🚐

Boxes Ride Free

However much you pick, it travels home in the back with you — no juggling crates on a train.

A Day on the Farms

Within ninety minutes of Melbourne you can pick strawberries by the bay, cherries in the Yarra Valley and apples at Red Hill — just not all in the same month. Our fruit picking days are built around the season and your group, usually pairing a farm with a nearby lunch stop and one scenic extra.

Two classic versions

The Yarra Valley day: Rayner's Orchard tractor tour and picking, lunch in Healesville, and a stop at the Yarra Valley Chocolaterie or a cellar door for the adults on the way home. The Peninsula day: Sunny Ridge strawberries, ice cream, then Arthurs Seat or a beach hour at Dromana before the drive back.
