Our employees contribute to our success.
This is what they said about us:
When I first started working at easypickings I thought I would stay for a couple of weeks, not more, but I eventually ended up staying for six months! The atmosphere is just great and everybody’s efforts are appreciated and respected. Not only you get your days signed off for your scond year visa, but you also have the chance to earn good money if you are willing to work hard. It has been a great experience for me and I have met tons of lovely people there. I am definetly coming Back Next year!!

I am actually sad to be leaving a farming job! The guys running the farm are always there to help and push you along to do better. It is nice to get to know a good bunch of people in such a a short time. There is a lot of job satisfaction here, none more so than giving in your last set of trays after finishing a row.
Thank you for alll your help and support from guys who have been in my position before.

wanted to thank you for giving me my first experience on a farm. The staff is really friendly and efficient to meet the needs of the backpakers. The working hours are well laid out, a team that motivates us all the time, which gives us the smile, the energy and the will to work. Personally you have answered all my needs in the farm. Thank you again for this great experience and I wish you much success.

Working for Easy Pickings, was probably one of the best experiences of my life, and was definitely a main highlight from my year in Australia. I'm used to working on bars and being pretty nocturnal, so it was a lovely change to work on a completely different schedule, outside in the fresh air and sunshine. The company owner James and his manager Adam are great blokes to work for and always make huge efforts to keep the atmosphere fun and relaxed, whilst at the same time motivating everyone to get the job done quickly and help the pickers make as much money as possible. After hearing some of the horror stories from various other travellers about their dodgy experiences on farms allover Australia, it's safe to say I got very lucky finding these guys to do my farm work with. The pay was good, I met some amazing people, got to work in beautiful surroundings and, best of all, got to live in Melbourne, the best city in the world, whilst getting my days ticked off for my second year visa. Anyone out there trying to find somewhere to work to get their second year in Australia, do yourself a favour and apply to Easy Pickings.

Loved working at easypickings so much so that I went back for a 2nd season! Having worked on various farms in Australia I can honestly say that easypickings has been the best experience. It has the perfect balance of hard work, good money and a fun atmosphere.

This is the place you wanna work for to get your 2nd year visa. Awesome work environment, fare pay rate and very good management crew. The transportation system from the city is great, make it easy to live in the city and work out in the beautiful Yarra Valley area. Perfect place to work and meet friends from all over the world.
