Have been doing some spot picking over the last week. Still cold and things are unfolding slowly. Have sold some Empress and Burlat through the stall. I took these photos today November 12.
Our Son Mark picking some Royal Hazel in the photo and Royal Lynn.
Mark and I planted these in July 2013, colt root stock, free standing vase, 6mx 3m. Perhaps the best thing I have handled in this time slot. Maybe these lower chill varieties have a place, good size, firm flesh and they eat well

Good to get a start on the cherries. Stonefruit not far from starting, weather permitting.
Please come for a visit to our orchard. Walk in the trees, stroll through the nursery and garden. Visit the fairy house where the children can play. Sample our cherries and stonefruit, have a picnic lunch or morning tea in our grounds. Enjoy a nice family day out at Cherry Dale
Best wishes to all
Hello there!
ReplyDeleteWe are a family of three who is planning to visit your cherry farm on 11th December. What time are you guys opening on that day :) ?
Is PYO available in your farm :) ?
Looking forward to your reply.\
Cheers!
Jessie.
The apricots you gave me to try last week were just as good as any I had eaten in NZ. Your cherries were amazing too. I hope to come down from the Gold Coast again next year to get more!
