19.01.2022 Sweet cherry Upick season is now closed at Chappies until next sweet cherry season (November 2020). We will have shop sales of freshly picked cherries until sold out. SOUR CHERRIES ARE DELICIOUS AND RIPE FOR UPICK now, and for at least the week ahead. Sour cherries (Morello variety) are very different to sweet cherries and are mostly used for cooking. They are smaller and more bitter than sweet cherries and are great for making jams, preserves, pastries, cakes, rice di...shes etc. Sour cherries are not un-ripe sweet cherries. Our raspberries and blackberries are ripe for Upick too! Sometimes berries are picked out early in the day, so Upick will be subject to availability. We're open every day from 8.30am until 5pm (last Upick tickets are sold at 4pm). Entry is $12 per person ($6 for primary school kids and free entry for pre-schoolers), plus $12 per kg of fruit you pick.
