You do not need to travel all the way to Japan to enjoy the beauty of cherry blossoms in full flower. Cherryhill’s annual Blossom Festival will this year run for a full week during the school holidays – from Wednesday September 26 to Tuesday October 2 – taking in the Grand Final Weekend. It is a great way to enjoy the fresh air, sunshine and the magical sight of a cherry orchard in full bloom.

Bring your family and friends, wander amongst the rows of cherry blossoms and take in the gorgeous views of the magnificent Yarra Valley. You can pack a picnic or enjoy Cherryhill’s farm gate café and food trucks. You can also try their delicious cherry beverages, including cherry beers, cherry cider and their new cherry shiraz wine. And of course, there will be plenty of their famous cherry ice cream to enjoy.

Activities include Busy Bees workshops for kids and bees wax wrap workshops for adults. There will also be free face-painting for the kids, live local music, giant lawn games and selfie photo fun.

Cherryhill is only one hour from Melbourne and is the perfect place to enjoy Spring at its best and most beautiful.
