About
Wallaroo Cherry Orchard is a fantastic spot just north of the Canberra border, only 15 minutes from the CBD. It's a family-run farm that offers pick-your-own fruit, which is always a good day out. Right now, they've got heaps of Asian pears ready for picking, going for $3.90 a kilo. It's a great chance to grab some fresh fruit straight from the tree and enjoy the farm scenery while you're at it. They're open every day, 9 am to 6 pm, so you can drop by pretty much whenever suits you. Adults pay a small entry fee of $5, but kids under eight get in for free, which is perfect for families. You don't even need to book ahead, just rock up. Keep an eye on their website for updates on what's in season, especially since they're called Wallaroo Cherry Farm, so you can bet there'll be cherries when the time is right. It’s a proper working farm experience where you can see where your food comes from.
