Step inside the world's first 100% electric, zero fossil fuel cherry orchard. Open, honest tours of Electric Cherries: solar, batteries, electric machinery and an outrageously good cherry. No question is off the table.
We're not here to preach. We've put our money where our mouth is, and we want to show you what we've built.
Electric Cherries is a real, working cherry orchard run entirely on renewable energy. No diesel, no gas, no fossil fuels in the growing of a single cherry. We'll walk you through the solar, the batteries, the electric tractor and the tech, and answer anything you want to ask.
Choose the way you'd like to visit: a weekly Signature tour, a private Exclusive experience on your own schedule, or a fully catered Corporate day for your team or visitors.

Electric Cherries has hosted ministers, entrepreneurs and the people building the future of farming.
I've been coming here now for maybe six months and I am just absolutely blown away every time I come back. I'm absolutely convinced that this is the answer for the entire country.
It's really exciting. It's not going to be very long before the entire New Zealand agricultural system is operating on electricity rather than expensive, dirty and imported diesel.
I've been blown away by how inspirational this farm is with respect to integration of technology and every electrification opportunity imaginable.

Absolutely. Catering, photography, videography and a cherry-blossom photo session (in season) can all be added to Exclusive and Corporate experiences.
One of the reasons we chose to do what we do is to inspire - we want to share our vision with as many people possible. We have had visitors from all over the world and New Zealand.
We are now excited to be offering full orchard tours around our 100% electric orchard. Come talk to the team and see for yourself what it takes to go fully electric and the savings we are able to make.
When you visit the farm you will meet with one of our team who will take you through the journey, and show you what it took to get to where we are today. See the machines we use and even take a ride on our Monarch electric tractor.
