Jackson Orchards — Local services in Cromwell Community

I visited NZ years ago and while driving to Queenstown, I stopped at a roadside produce stand for a snack. I noticed some "Black Boy" peaches which I had never heard of before. They sounded interesting so I bought a couple and continued my drive. As I was driving, I ate them and they were some of the most delicious things I've ever had! They have yellow skins like a regular peach but are purple inside like plums. If I had eaten one while I was still at the stand, I would have bought more of them It was almost worth going to NZ just to taste them (I'm from the US). I have no idea which produce stand it was but it was somewhere in this area (the 5 stars are for whichever one it was). I've never heard anything about Black Boy peaches before or since.

We had one of our best fruit farm tour today. We drove past Jackson Orchards when we were on our way to Cromwell town and we decided to stopped by and buy some fruits.

This is really an experience we will never forget, since we could never have this back home in our tropical country. Thank you Julie and Jackson Orchards for such a...

Bought some "Mixed Size" Christmas Cherries online and phoned Jackson's Orchards and got confirmation the cherries are excellent and some 5 Star Restaurants in Auckland also order from them. When the cherries were received, most of the cherries are alright size ranging from 18mm to 26mm. However there was two particular 5kg boxes that contained almost all around 20mm size cherries lots under 20mm, no bigger than the supermarket cherries that is selling for $15 per kg! I have written to complain that I expected it to be at least better than supermarket 2nd grade cherries but received reply that she specifically said its mixed size cherries.

SO THOSE THAT ARE CONSIDERING PURCHASING ONLINE CHERRIES, DON'T BE SUPPRISED TO RECEIVE SUPERMARKET CHEERIES THAT IS FOR SALE FOR $15 PER KG AS AT THE DATE I...
