Orchard & berries
Stone fruit, pears, apples, citrus, mulberry, pomegranate, walnuts and berry growing are part of the long-term farm plan.
The Farm
Growing with the seasons in the King Valley.
Emuvale is a small working farm where fruit, berries, vines, vegetables, herbs and new growing projects all sit together. Some crops are for the kitchen, some for preserving, some for paddock-to-flask experiments — and some are simply because we want to see how well they grow here.
What is growing here
The farm includes citrus, apples, pears, peaches, nectarines, plums, pomegranate, mulberry, walnuts and established Pinot Noir vines, along with strawberries, seasonal vegetables, herbs and warm-season crops such as pumpkins.
A practical farm
We try to use as much of each crop as we can. Fruit can become preserves or recipe ingredients, citrus peel can be saved for later experiments, prunings can have a second life, and the journal records what works — and what needs changing next season.
Seasonal crops
Pumpkins, vegetables, herbs and other seasonal plantings give us ingredients to cook with, preserve and test.
Use the whole crop
We are interested in making better use of what the farm produces — including peels, prunings, surplus fruit and unusual harvests.
