About Fruit Picking
Fruit picking is hard work and it can be extremely hot in the paddock. Appropriate clothing should be worn e.g. long sleeve cotton shirt, light weight slacks,trousers,shorts and a wide soft brimmed hat must be worn. Solid work boots with ankle support is also recommended as the ground may be uneven. Sunscreen must be worn.

Fruit is picked, according to instructions, using a ladder to climb to the fruit and a picking bag is worn strapped to the shoulders, fruit is placed in the bag then carefully emptied into the fruit bin supplied. Fruit is picked either to colour, size or strip picked (taking all fruit on the tree).

Payment is made per bin of fruit picked. (See Wages tab at left of screen)
