Darlings Orchard

Darlings Orchard is a local business that is involved in all facets of orchard practices. We grow a large assortment of pip and stone fruit for local, domestic and export markets.

The Darling family has long been a part of the Central Otago fruit growing community. Today, Stephen, Mark and Mike Darling each operate orchards in the Ettrick, Roxburgh and Cromwell areas of Central Otago.

Each year we grow and harvest the best apples and pears, cherries and apricots, plums, peaches and nectarines.

Equipped with state of the art optical fruit colour and blemish sorting equipment, our packhouse and coolstore facilities handle fresh fruit from our Central Otago orchards and local fruitgrower neighbours.

We supply premium fresh apples and pears, apricots and other stonefruit to customers across New Zealand and to many countries around the world.
