picking pears

The R J Cornish & Co orchard is located at Cobram which is a country town on the Murray River in northern Victoria. It is a good town with facilities and entertainment which makes it a great place for fruit pickers. The fruit picking season (late January to April) in this part of Australia is usually fairly warm to hot. Check out our current weather conditions by clicking here.

We offer good working conditions and the chance to get fit at the same time. Fruit picking work is generally available Monday to Friday (weather and crop permitting) with the strong possibility of Sunday work.

Applications are now being taken from people looking for seasonal work who are willing to support safe work practices. We do not have any fruit picking jobs for people who are going to take risks with safety..

You will also need to provide your Tax File Number and the details of your Australian bank account for payment of your wages.
