Commercial Orchards Milton Hill. This whole area as late as the 1980's was totally given over to apple, pear and cherry production. However since the rise of the French Golden Delicious (which it is not) in the supermarkets these wonderful native varieties are all but lost. Please visit the local farm shop who still market their produce from this area and buy a couple of bottles of their apple juice. Pure nectar!
