The fruit season has now finished. We start picking again in December 2011 God willing.
Peaches and plums are ready from December and apples from mid January.
We have started to erect some netting to exclude the fruit bats that have caused so much damage over the last 2 years so hopefully we will have more and bette rfruit on offer next season.
With 2,500 trees to prune we will have a busy winter. Peaches and plums flower in August/September and apples in October. Then if growing conditions are good and we control the pests and diseases these flowers develop into large juicy fruit.
In the mean time oranges and mandarins are coming into season so visit the Hawkesbury Harvest website to discover where you can harvest fresh citrus fruits
