Burlington Berries
Burlington Berries have a rich history in the horticulture industry, with sustainable and delightful harvests of Australia’s favourite berries.
We are a family-owned business that specialises in high-quality soft fruit production. Whilst we were established in Cressy, Tasmania, in 2012, we have over 120 years of experience spanning Upper Murray Seeds, Burlington Berries, and Hugh Lowe Farms in the United Kingdom. Most notably, we supply Driscolls Australia with our Amesti Strawberries and Maravilla Raspberries.
Our harvest season runs from October through to June, with our polytunnels providing security of production, protection from the elements, and guaranteed high-quality berries – but it doesn’t stop there. Yielding periods are expanding, and so are we.
With our harvest season soon approaching, we are on the lookout for Pack House Workers to join our team in Cressy, Tasmania. These are seasonal roles (Oct - July).
