COME VISIT OUR ORCHARD
Electric Cherries Experiences
Discover the innovation, sustainability and passion driving New Zealand’s most talked-about Cherry Orchard, where electric technology and premium cherries come together in a one-of-a-kind experience.
Electric Cherries is the vision of Mike Casey, NZ Sustainability Leader of Year 2026.
Located in Cromwell, Mike has built something the world has never seen before and his story has captivated the country. Featured on Country Calendar, Seven Sharp, Breakfast, Newshub and Rural Delivery, this is the Orchard New Zealand can’t stop talking about. And now you get to walk through it.
Our experience offers exclusive access to the people, technology and ideas behind one of New Zealand's most innovative farming operations.

More about this experience
Our Electric Cherries tour experience runs weekly or fortnightly, Thursday mornings at 10am (seasonal availability) for 90 minutes. Capped at 10 adults per session, because we made a deliberate decision to keep this intimate. No straining to hear from the back of the group. No rushing through. Just a small group of curious people getting real access to something genuinely extraordinary.

What You'll Experience
A walk through 9,300 cherry trees
Learn how we grow our premium export-quality cherries.
See the Monarch electric tractor
The only one in New Zealand, and you'll get close enough to touch it. You'll understand what it actually takes to run a commercial farm on electricity: not in theory, not in a boardroom presentation, but standing next to the machine that proved it works. This is the future of farming, and it's already here.
The full solar story
Told by the people who lived it. Solar power runs everything on this orchard — every machine, every operation. You'll hear exactly how that works, and what it cost to get there.
Meet the team behind the orchard
Euan manages this orchard every single day. Rebecca helped build it from the ground up. Between them they've made every hard call, faced every setback, and figured out every breakthrough firsthand. It's a genuine conversation with the actual humans behind one of NZ's most talked-about businesses — the kind of access you simply don't get anywhere else. Ask them anything.
A complimentary bottle of Electric Cherries Juice
One per electric vehicle guests arrive in — a small thank you to show how much we love EVs. Our 100% Pure Electric Cherries Juice is made by Eden Orchards just for us, with no added sugar or preservatives: just the rich, vibrant flavour of sun-ripened cherries grown on our fully electric, solar-powered orchard. A taste of the orchard to enjoy long after your visit.

FROM THE FAN CLUB
Legends Who've Visited
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.
