Ford’s Farm is a Pick Your Own citrus orchard specialising in Mandarins. Our first mandarin of the season is the Satsuma, a seedless variety, easy to peel, full of juice and very popular with children. This year we have a reasonable crop of Satsumas, but not as many Imperials due to the floods last year.
Ford’s Farm is nestled on the banks of the Hawkesbury River, 15 minutes from Wiseman’s Ferry. The citrus orchard was established over 60 years ago by the Ford family (some original trees still produce fruit – the Emperor Mandarins). It has been a Pick Your Own orchard for over 23 years and has developed with help from our customers.
We look forward to welcoming visitors in June each year to pick mandarins, oranges, lemons, limes and Cumquats. We close once all mandarins have been picked and may re-open in July for any fruit that remains.
We have a small picnic area open from 10am -2pm only, but recommend you visit Wisemans Ferry for all picnics this year.
Visit our “shed” for jams, chutney, cordial and honey all made on the farm. The honey is different every year as the bees forage on whatever is available at the time. It is pure with no additives in the honey. Expresso Coffee & hot chocolate plus small selection of cakes & biscuits.
BOOKINGS ARE ESSENTIAL through our website. Bookings will open 8 May 2025 @ 8am.
Recently we won our submission to overturn the number of people allowed on the farm at any one time which had been issued by the NSW State Government and can now operate as we see fit considering conditions for our area.
