What started as a dream of farm life has now become The Cheeky Cherry. As a Bayside Melbourne family, we’ve long loved the balance of coastal living with weekends in the fresh country air, growing veggies, exploring trails, and soaking up the space and simplicity. That dream led us to the Mornington Peninsula, where we purchased this orchard from a beautiful family who lovingly paved the way for what it is today.

Kristy, our self-appointed Chief Cherry Picker (and Chief of Operations!), now leads the day-to-day, from planning and organising to welcoming visitors and coordinating seasonal pickers. She brings fresh ideas and a playful, modern twist to our family-run farm.

Josh and our teenage boys (with help from our much-loved dogs, Willa and Izzy) are never far away, lending a hand and enjoying life among the cherries.

The orchard is just the beginning, while we’re passionate about growing and sharing beautiful cherries with locals and visitors alike, our vision is to expand The Cheeky Cherry into a lifestyle retreat: a place for families, wellness escapes, and corporate getaways to experience the same balance of Bayside life and country air that we love so much.

For now, it’s all about the cherries and welcoming you to be part of our Cheeky Cherry family. 🍒
