Seasonal Orchard Thinner 2024
Suncrest Orchard is a family-owned and operated orchard with 3 generations working hands-on in the business. We grow over 30 varieties of cherries and are Global GAP, SQF (HACCP) and GRASP accredited. This means we are a safe, sustainable company, practicing good agricultural practices and complying with national employment legislation.
About the role
The role of a thinner is to remove the small fruitlets from the trees to enable the remaining fruit to grow and produce a good harvest. It’s a job that is done by hand and/or scissors. The role will begin in early/mid October and go through until late November/early December.

You’ll be someone who enjoys working outside (in both cool and hot conditions) and enjoys being part of a team. You're self-motivated and you have a positive can-do attitude and it goes without saying you’re reliable and punctual and will always get the job done.
