We will be picking cherries, apricots and peaches and this will involve some ladder work.   A fear of heights would be a disadvantage.

Full training will be provided.

Roxburgh is a small picturesque town with a 7 day supermarket, Entertainment Centre, cafes and shops. Roxburgh Gorge and Clutha Gold scenic cycle trails are nearby.

We have a campsite on orchard with good facilities.   Showers/Toilets/Kitchen and lounge area.  Suitable for anyone with a campervan/sleeping van or tent.  There are Backpackers and homestay options available in Roxburgh we can help with.
