Farm tours

We offer a farm tour, by appointment only, for groups (educational/leisure).  The tour can be taken most times during the year, Monday, Tues, Wed or Friday, or possibly by arrangement on weekends. There is, however, very little to see during the months of June, July & August, when the trees are dormant.  We are also unable to take tour bookings during extremely busy periods, such as mid-late November and early April - mid May. The tour consists of a ride through different parts of the orchard on our specially designed trailer with explanations of different fruit varieties and types, growing techniques, tree maintenance, and picking of crops, etc.  Then we take the group through our packing operations, in our large packing shed which is equipped with a computerised fruit-grading machine.  We will also show you our apple juice manufacturing plant and bottling operations. A sample of our delicious apple juice will be provided for each person.

The tour takes approx. 1 ½ to 2  hours. Please phone 02 46818457 for bookings. (Office hours only)

Cost:               This will vary, depending on size of group.  Minimum charge is $240 (incl.GST)                         for groups up to 15 people, plus $12 (incl.GST) for each additional person,                         up to 50 people.  The maximum we can cater for at one time is 50 people, and                         we offer a 10% discount for Senior’s Groups.                         For any group bringing an interpretor, we can only manage 28 ppl per interpretor.
