Situated on the banks of the Macquarie River near the township of Cressy, Burlington Farm is renowned for its nutrient rich soils, abundant water and cool temperate climate, providing the ideal environment for producing a range of soft fruits.

Every year, over 450 team members work together to produce in excess of 2,500 tonnes of berries destined for local and national markets.

Many people join us on our farm, from Europe to Asia, Tasmania to Tonga, South America to Samoa. We are proud of our rich cultural diversity and the mixed demographic of workers. We are only as good as our people and they bring their expertise and passion in horticulture, agriculture and management to our farm.

Our harvest season starts in mid October and runs through to early June with peaks from December to March. Harvest is when we pick our ripe and delicious berries and send them all around Australia via our partnership with Driscoll’s Australia.

Whilst harvest is often the busiest time of year, Burlington Berries is an all-year-round operation with team members busy preparing, propagating, planting and planning to ensure everything is ready for harvest time; the culmination of our year's work.

Growing under protected cropping allows Burlington to operate in an environmentally sustainable way. We employ advanced agronomy techniques combined with biological control methods which minimise the need for chemicals whilst maximising our opportunity to use more natural methods.
