Jonagold is my favourite!

We are still picking the last of the Jonagolds, definitely my favourite apple. Also now picking Fuji and Red Delicious, with Pink Lady soon to follow. All apples from our orchard are available for purchase through Tutti Fruitti at bilpin, or alternatively, you can find Farmer John at the markets held in Blacktown on Sunday mornings or Penrith on Wednesday mornings. If you find him at the markets, tell him you found this message on the webpage to get a free Tutti Fruitti ice-cream voucher.

Group tours for apple picking

We can cater for group tours (20-50) where you can visit the orchard and pick your own apples. This can be organised in conjunction with morning/afternoon tea or lunch at Tutti Fruitti if required. Current pick-your-own available on Jonagold apples.

Apple Calendar

Picking lots and lots of apples now - and plenty more to follow over the next couple of months. Still have a few Gala left and now picking delicious Jonagold (my personal favourite!) and Jonnee. Fuji will also start within the next couple of weeks, followed by Pink Lady and Granny Smith in April. Watch this space for regular updates.
