Our Family Orchard, which is very easy to find, is located at Hercules Flat, only 2km from Roxburgh, on the East side of the Clutha River.<\/div>\n
Our old fashioned, 1950\u2019s style Fruit Stall, is surrounded by gardens and was created by Mum over thirty years ago.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Mum and I have been busy painting the Fruit Stall inside and out and Sam has been helping out by putting up a new trellis for us\u2026\u2026all set for another Fruit Season\u2026.we love this time of the year! \"?\"<\/span>\"?\"<\/span>\"?\"<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Easy Directions To Our Place.\u2026<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
When you arrive in Roxburgh, turn down Jedburgh Street which is directly opposite the Petrol Station and travel a couple of hundred metres down the road towards the Clutha River\u2026\u2026turn right off the bridge\u2026..you will find us only 2 km down the road\u2026.. you will see our Hobbs Orchard sign at the entrance on the left-hand side of the road\u2026. come on up the driveway.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
If you are visiting us for the first time and you are coming from Millers Flat end, please ignore Google maps and GPS systems as apparently they show our neighbours driveway as our main entrance! \"?\"<\/span>\"?\"<\/span><\/div>\n
This is obviously incorrect\u2026…I have tried to have this issue rectified but to no avail.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
So please ignore your GPS, etc when they tell you to cross the bridge at Millers Flat…..just keep on the main highway and follow the above instructions when you reach Roxburgh.<\/div>\n
Our actual entrance is well sign-posted and has been for over thirty years! \"?\"<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Looking forward to catching up with you all.\"406921532_884544883373081_6070605464131964026_n\"<\/div>\n
