A little bit about us...
We are a small family run orchard located in Roxburgh, Central Otago. We have been Orchardists since 2015 and have owned and operated the historic Fairview Orchard since 2017. Summer is our busiest time of the year, we are in full swing picking on the orchard, packing fruit in our on-site pack-house and selling fruit, coffees, real fruit ice creams and other goodies from our roadside shop.
We also launched Up A Tree Distillery from the back of our fruit shop where you can pop in and enjoy free tastings of our spirits and liqueurs created from nothing but fruit (18+ only).
