Your cherries are delicious mouthfuls of sunshine I give to my family as a fond farewell to the year and a beautiful start to the New Year.
Soo grateful to this team for going carbon-free on the farm and sharing export-grade cherries to local markets!! Fabulous fruit and seamless order and delivery process.
Best cherries I’ve had in as long as I can remember. Price is pretty high… But willing to pay for the innovative way of farming etc. Massively impressed by the methods etc. employed, and hopefully other orchards take notice and start copying your lead!

If you contact us directly we can change the postage label before it even gets into the hands of the courier. This is best done as soon as you get the postage notification from us in the 2 days prior to cherries being sent.
Yes, but we are not currently sending to the far North Island rural addresses as we have found that the time it takes to get there especially in the summer heat means the cherries don’t arrive at their best. If you can get them sent to a nearby non rural we really encourage that, especially in the North Island.
Please contact us asap on email cherries@forestlodge.nz
We grow Rainier, Lapins, Sweetheart and Kootenay.
Almost all of our cherries are ready in January. We don't have any varieties that are ready pre-Christmas, our earliest pick at this stage is looking like it will be between Christmas and New Year. A perfect treat to celebrate the new year, they are worth the wait.
