Who are we?

Harefield is a small farmland area within the Shire of Junee, situated in the Murrumbidgee River Valley, NSW. Dennis and Beverley Lambert moved to this area of the Riverina in 1983, planted their first pistachio trees and formed Harefield Pistachios.

Our Orchards

Kangaroos in the orchard.Harefield Pistachios consists of 2100 pistachio trees, which are harvested once a year. Dennis germinated his own rootstock and over several years, budded his trees using Sirora scion wood.

The scion had been developed by the Australian Council for Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation, as a unique Australian variety of pistachio which would yield a vibrant, purple and green kernel with a delicate, sweet flavour.

 

Fresh FruitDennis and Beverley Lambert

We have specialised in the marketing of fresh pistachio fruit and are market leaders in this field. More recently we have been developing a new and increasingly popular product - naturally sun dried pistachios. These have not been salted or roasted and therefore, still contain flavour and colour.
