Once again google maps has been trying to take over our business from the other side of the planet - sending people here on a wild goose chase.
We will probably be open around 6 January 2023
In the meantime here's to a merry Christmas (if that's your thing) and a happy new year! π
Thank you all for your custom and support, we look forward to seeing you soon! πβ€οΈπ

When open our normal operating hours are 10 am to 5pm
We normally just open to the public for PYO on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
But please keep an eye on this site, just in case we open earlier (or have to close for what ever reason) π€
Remember also that google is on the other side of the planet and often don't have a clue about our opening times, so just make things up, so best to keep an eye on this site instead, thank you.
Remember to be safe on the road, if you're driving from CHCH and there's a lot of cars, please drive another 200 metres to Alameda Place and do a U-turn there, where the road is wider.
Because of the ridiculous bottle neck on the new Southern motorway into Rolleston, half of the disgruntled Rollestonians choose to use Shands Road instead, for their daily commute.
The safest way to turn into our property is to drive past it another 200 metres to Alameda Place, do a U-turn there and double back.
I've removed the front fence to make turning off Shands Road not quite so life threatening, and you will be able to drive down the RIGHT hand side of the property, past the house and right up to the blueberry orchard (unless you prefer to still park under the shade of the trees which is totally OK too). If you still come in the gateway, that's fine, and you can take the detour halfway along.
Obviously, if you meet someone coming the opposite way, just pull over to the left and give each other enough room. This may mean you leave the main track a little, but that's no problem.
The dirt track (scenic route) is more fun and picturesque than the old driveway. ππ
