Tree fruit harvesters

Do you enjoy working outside? Harvest Feijoa's in an organic orchard!

Join a team of full-time staff who work all year round and seasonal workers who return yearly. 

Fill your buckets with feijoas and empty them into bins. Collecting feijoas that have fallen as they are yummy and ripe so getting up and down off the ground with ease is a must. All-you-can-eat feijoas (New Zealands favourite fruit!) There are no nets and no ladders. Buckets are then emptied either into wheelbarrows within the rows or emptied into bins at the end of the rows. Once full, wheelbarrows are then emptied into either bins at the end of the rows or put on the truck for grading for Ceres Organic fresh fruit retail sales.

Flexible days and times to suit your requirements. Start on Monday 20 March.
