About cherry picking jobs
Cherry picking jobs across Australia run a short, well-paid season from late November to January, in Young, Orange, the Adelaide Hills and Tasmania. Growers hire fast and pay well.
When and where

The work
You pick by hand into a bucket, working early to beat the afternoon heat. Most farms pay piece rates by the kilo, so fast pickers do well during the short peak.
The casual minimum is $30.91 per hour. Many picking jobs pay piece rates instead, where faster workers earn more. See our pay rates guide for detail.
Most regional farm work counts toward your 88 days. Check the rules in our 88 days guide.
