Fruit festival fun

Peaches carries Able, 3, around the orchard.

Rayner’s Orchard highlighted the valley’s fresh produce with a free summer celebration on 16 and 17 February.

The Fruits of the Yarra Valley Festival was designed to showcase the attractions and producers that called the Yarra Valley home.

Attendees explored the Woori Yallock orchard by tractor, tasted fresh fruits, watched blacksmiths from Mont De Lancey at work and learnt about preserving fruits.
