Taralee Orchards is a scenic 115 acre undulating property situated adjacent to the Wirrabara State Forest in the Southern Flinders Ranges. The main commercial activity is producing certified biodynamically grown stonefruit, with value added products such as dried fruit, fruit leathers, jams, chutneys and honey.

We also have free range poultry, geese, sheep, cattle and a large vege garden. Also two friendly farm dogs.

We have two self contained cottages,Apricot Cottage and Ruby Cottage. Both have spacious verandahs overlooking the orchard and nearby Forest, and cosy slow combustion wood fires in the lounge for the cooler months.
