Before you go

Run by George and Marietta Khoury since 1986, near Bathurst. Cherry picking is by appointment only, phone ahead to book. Grows 18 cherry varieties including Romeo cherries; pre-picked cherries are also sold from the shed. Pick-your-own was suspended entirely in 2024 after frost destroyed about 70% of the crop, so the owners kept the remaining fruit for local customers instead of opening to pickers; call ahead to check whether picking is running this season. This farm is not the same business as the Hillview cherry farm in Young, NSW.

About Hillview Cherry Farm

Hillview Cherry Farm is a pick-your-own cherry orchard at 85 Clairvaux Lane, Kelso, in the rolling hills near Bathurst. It has been run by George and Marietta Khoury since 1986, and grows 18 different cherry varieties including Romeo cherries. In a typical year the season starts in early December and runs into late December or early January, with the exact length depending on the weather. Picking is by appointment only, arranged by phone, with weekdays recommended for individual visitors and weekends busier with coach groups. Pre-picked cherries are also sold from the farm shed for those who do not want to pick their own. In 2024 a frost destroyed around 70 percent of the crop, and the Khourys chose to suspend pick-your-own entirely that year so the remaining fruit could still go to their regular local customers. Visitors planning a trip should phone ahead on 0403 539 161 closer to the cherry season to confirm picking is running and to book a time.
