Cherry Chatter from Roth Family Orchard #3

Cherry season is here! 🍒  🍒 🍒 🍒 Quick update as the season starts earlier

🍒 Pick Your Own Opens tomorrow 

🍒 Packed Cherries for sale at Orchard  

🍒 Narrabri - cherries at Craddocks Butchery this week

Pick Your Own opens tomorrow 🍒

Pick your own will now open tomorrow and next weekend - dates and details have been added to the online booking here

7:30 am until 12. Get in early before the heat.

We are now expecting the Rons, Vans and Black Stars will ripen next weekend - a big change in the past two days. If you have already booked for a later date and specifically wanted the Rons or prefer to come earlier then please email your booking reference and I can change the date. Or of course you could come twice for double the cherry fix 🍒

There are plenty of cherries still to ripen later, they are growing some amazing size.

The expected cool change has become a heatwave which is speeding up ripening.

Packed Cherries - Merchant Variety Orchard & Narrabri this week  🍒

This week we picked Merchant cherries. The bonus of picking for direct sales is we can leave these cherries to become fully ripe to develop their flavour. Softer than our other varieties, they are very juicy and sweet.

Cherries are for sale at the orchard in 2kg, 5kg and $10 bag options

Seconds are also available at a cheaper price - jams, pies, BBQ sauce, pit & freeze for smoothies & clafoutis, so many ways with cherries.

Bags and 2kg boxes will be available at Craddocks Butchery Narrabri from Monday.

Cherry Express will be taking cherries on the road mid December

🍒 Blue Mountains / Parramatta / Sydney

🍒 North West - Gunnedah / Boggabri / Narrabri / Moree / Thallon

🍒 Hunter region

We'll work out details once we see what the next few hot days do to our expected timing.

Our slow gentle start is rapidly becoming busy!

Cherry Cheers
