Award-winning selection



Kookaberry Berry Farm is a family-run business, having grown gorgeous berries for 47 years to tickle anyone’s fancy.

Guests of Kookaberry are invited to enjoy fresh or frozen strawberries, blackberries, raspberries, figs and of course, the jams, vinegars and syrups from the farm gate.

Kookaberry products are 100 per cent Australian-grown and made with no preservatives, additives or artificial colours.

All jams, syrups and vinegars are made using berries grown on the farm.

The creation of these products began 22 years ago when Kookaberry part-owner Tony decided to come up with an idea utilising the not-so-marketable berries.

This idea transformed into the production of gourmet, handmade and award-winning jams, syrups, sauces and vinegars.

The Kookaberry jams and syrups have won gold and silver awards at the Sydney Fine Food Show and, Hobart Fine Food Show.

Kookaberry Raspberry Balsamic Vinegar has won Gold and champion savoury many times at the Sydney Fine Food Show.

Kookaberry jams are made by grower Frances, who carefully chooses her berries from the farm to ensure taste and quality.

All products are handmade in small batches, bottled and labelled by Frances on the farm.

Kookaberry also makes hampers to suit anyone’s budget for Christmas, birthdays and other special occasions.
