Food and wine around Young
Young and its surrounds are home to many different stone fruit orchards, wineries and gourmet food shops. Nicholas Jasprizza introduced cherries to Young in 1876 – the town and its cherry industry has been booming ever since.
About Young
This historic country town is known as the cherry capital of Australia. Set amidst scenic rolling hills and a landscape that changes colours with the seasons, Young offers an unhurried country experience.
Walk the local heritage trail to see historic sites around town including the Chinese Tribute Gardens or Lambing Flat Folk Museum.
Don't miss the National Cherry Festival that's held each December, featuring a festival ball, street parade and "pip-spitting" competition. Pick your own cherries at one of Young's many orchards during the cherry season, which lasts from mid-November to late December.
