How to Get Here
and
Prices. And
for a map, click here. We are one of the few orchards to offer
Pick-Your-Own. The trees are kept short and most of our fruit can be
picked standing on the ground. On a typical hot summer's day we are
normally one of the coolest spots in the state - in amongst the trees
it is even cooler. The view from the top of our hill is also well
worth the climb. In the immediate vicinity there is the vineyard and
cellar door of an excellent independent small winery Mt Lofty
Vineyards - they are open most weekends and public holidays.
If
you have any energy left after tramping up our hill there is a nice
walk available by turning right at the top of our road. This takes you
along the edge of the state forest - initially bordering grazing land
and then through natural scrub where you get views in one direction to
Marble Hill and Cherryville - in the other direction right out to the
Port River. Kangaroos can often be seen at dusk. (UPDATED: November

Home Canning Kits
This is the same type of standard canner that my grandmother used to
make everything from applesauce to jams and jellies to tomato and
spaghetti sauce. This complete kit includes everything you need and
lasts for years: the canner, jar rack, jar grabber tongs, lid lifting
wand, a plastic funnel, labels, bubble freer, and the bible of canning,
the Ball Blue Book. It's much cheaper than buying the items separately.
You'll never need anything else except jars & lids (and the jars are
reusable)! There is also a simple kit with just the canner and rack, and a pressure canner, if you want to do vegetables (other than tomatoes).
