200 Berry Pickers Job Vacancies in AUSTRALIA | Urgently Required in 2018

Located in beautiful Northern Tasmania, just 30 minutes north of Launceston, Hillwood Farmgate provides direct -from-the-farm produce from our own berry farm as well as selected producers from the local area. Unlike most pick-you-own operations our primary business is still farming, producing the commercial berries you see on supermarket shelves around Australia. Our philosophy is to open up some of the farm to the public so you can get hands on and select your very own produce to enjoy when you get home.

Hillwood Berries Pty Ltd are looking for pickers to work on their Farm situated 25.5km north of Launceston along the Tamar River from November 2017 to end May 2018. Hillwood Berries produces Strawberries, Raspberries, Blackberries and Blueberries and is a Tasmanian owned and managed berry farm.
