CherryHill Orchards is once again celebrating its popular cherry season by welcoming visitors to pick their own cherries while enjoying a fabulous day out in the Yarra Valley from 27 November to early January.
New for 2020 is a collaboration with Popstic, where visitors can indulge in a delicious heart-shaped Cherish Spritzer popsicle, as well as an alcoholic Cherry Rosé Cider Popsicle. Also new is a collaboration with Yarra Valley Chocolaterie, where three gourmet desserts have been created. Visitors can cool off with a cherry sorbet, cherry milk chocolate ice-cream and a cherry choc chip swirl ice-cream.
The beautiful orchard will come alive with live music and entertainment for the perfect picnic. Live performances will include Melbourne country singer songwriter James Mark, and pop rock musician Ellery Cohen with his signature electronic industrial beats, as well as other local Melbourne bands and musicians.
For those who want to grab a bite on site, visit one of the many food trucks serving up the likes of Vietnamese street food and delicious pizzas.
2020 marks the 80th anniversary of CherryHill Orchards and while this year’s season is a little different due to limited capacity, there’s still plenty of cherries to go around and endless entertainment for a stunning day out. While visiting CherryHill Orchards guests can eat as many cherries off the trees as they like, while taking in the surrounds.
Cherry picking slots are available in slots of 2½ hours, allowing for plenty of time to wander around the orchard, pick cherries, set up a picnic and indulge in treats available on site.
For those wanting a fully catered event, High Tea in the Orchards includes a three-hour sitting with a cherry-inspired menu in a private row of green foliage.
