Why did we create this map?

After having spent one and a half years on the road, we understand the importance of fruit picking to backpackers. Whether it is to top up your bank account or to apply for a second year visa, a big number of travellers stops by for a farm experience during their road trip. The struggle many backpackers face, consists of finding and contacting truly good farms, which can be a lot of work and take up quite some time. We lost many days on the road and had to spend a lot of money on fuel etc. So, in order for you to save time and to help you make the best of your travel, we want to share our knowledge and all the contact details we acquired throughout the past seven years spent in Australia.

How to find a job in fruit picking within a couple of days ?

Once you have determined the region you plan on working in, it is time to start looking for farms. Like in any other job search, you will have to find the most direct way to communicate with your potential future employers. Given the circumstance that you are already in the region, try to score by showing up in person. In the case of you not being close to the farm, choose phone calls over sending emails. As you know, not all farmers from small, local farms are great fans of the internet!

In order to support you and your research in the most effective manner, every crucial information you need is provided on the map. Even after a first glance, you will be able to note very rapidly the regions that offer you the most opportunities.

Eligible regions to renew your WHV

Find out which regions and areas are eligible for a working holiday visa renewal.

Every tagged farm is equipped with a postal address, so you have the possibility to introduce yourself face to face if you like.

We have made an effort to find the most precise addresses possible, though we were not able to trace all of them. But don’t worry, this only concerns a few farms, which have been marked as “incomplete address”.

Additionally, you will find at least a phone number or an email address for every single one of the farms, sometimes even both! That way you will be able to find out where to find and how to get to the farm, with or without a vehicle.

Lastly, some of the farms even have websites or Facebook pages, which you can visit. These might give you the most recent status concerning job offers.

Almost 500 fruit picking farm contacts

Whether you are in a van or a backpacker in a hostel, it is real good to benefit from farm contacts. Because you should know that job openings in this area are pretty rare. Indeed, farmers choose to hire more at the last minute, and given the number of WHVs looking for a job in fruit picking, they don’t really need to advertise.

A good way to find one is to go from farm to farm, but it can take a long time and cost a lot of money. Australia is a huge country, so it is easier to call the farms directly.

INCREASE YOUR CHANCES OF FINDING A JOB in fruit picking, by contacting the farmers directly!
