The Blue Mountains are named for the delicate azure haze that lingers along the region, which is actually a fine cloud of oil emitted by eucalyptus trees. The mystical mountains are a labyrinth of plateaus, gorges and gum trees. Check out the Katoomba Scenic Railway (the steepest railway in the world), the Jenolan Caves and the Giant Staircase nature walk.

We had so much fun. A family business full of love,our guide was a beautiful man, who walked us down and told us where and what we can pick, how to pick. Picking the fruit was fun and rewarding to show kids, fruit grows from trees not from the shop. I can't wait to go back. Every member of the family I saw/meet were so friendly, helpful and just a pure delight. We can't wait to go back!!!!! Oh and the apples are yummy!!!

A family owned and operated orchard offering pick-your-own seasonal fruit from late December to April/May. Open Friday's 10am-4pm, Saturday's, Sunday's and Public Holidays 9am-5pm. We grow peaches, plums, nectarines, pears, apples, chestnuts, quinces and persimmons. Local produce available includes berries, honey, jams, cider and apple juice.
Picking fruit right off the tree for fresh fruit was a priceless experience and a beautiful eye opener for the kids to see where we eat our fruit comes from. Highly recommend this orchard for a fun filled day of fruit picking, there is a large variety of different fruit and an abundance of fruit of the trees, plenty for everyone to take home. At $5 a kilo we picked a variety of apples pears quince plums and nectarines, we were very happy with all the fruit we took home and had plenty to give away as well! We also purchased honey jams apple cider and apple cider vinegar at the shop. Amazing customer service we will definitely be back when other fruits are in season.

Planned and went on a family day out today (Saturday 24th August) to go mandarin picking at Watkins family farm, and it did not disappoint. We had an absolute ball, the orchard was had plenty of trees with abundant clusters of ripe and ready to pick mandarins. Each person entering to pick had to pay for a bucket which was super cheap at $12.50 for a large bucket and $7.00 for a small one. My husband and I purchased 2 large buckets and filled them out to the rip, which probably totalled a good 10-15kg of fresh mandarins. On the way out you had the opportunity to feed the sheep, so family friendly. This place is a must for a great weekend trip. Not too far from Sydney, only 1.5hours alway. We would definitely be back. Thanks a lot guys for the lovely memories.
All organic grown succulents, herbs, seedlings & ornamentals within a developing spacious Permaculture farm. Hand raised seedlings, Lovely terracotta gift pots or a new herb to add to your collection you may just find it here! Feel free to wander or have a roll on the grass beneath the shady maples.

We found this place as a result of arvo tea at The Pines Orchard; it's only a 2 minute drive from there. We ONLY PAID $2 ENTRY PER PERSON! Much cheaper than other places in the area requesting at least $5 for an entry fee to pick fruit that you are still charged for! They then charged $5 per kilo of apples that we picked...they are so fresh! Yummiest apples that we've ever eaten! They are so delicious, my eyes nearly popped out at the first bite! We'd definitely be back!
