Macedon Ranges
Call farmGet directionsVisit website

Family-run flower farm (Bernie & Virginia McIntosh, since 2013) in Kerrie, Macedon Ranges VIC. Confirmed genuine pick-your-own via the farm's own website: dedicated 'Peony Picking Days' page with explicit ticket types/prices, capacity limits, and dated 2-hour sessions across Nov-early Dec. Farm-gate cut bunches and bare-root plant sales also run during those same session windows (no ticket required). Not a year-round operation -- only open on the announced picking dates each spring; check the website for current-season dates before visiting. Could not independently corroborate via the Visit Macedon Ranges tourism pages cited in discovery (browser access to that domain was unreliable during verification), but the farm's own official site provides sufficiently detailed, self-consistent, commercially-specific information (real pricing, real address, real phone) to confirm this as a genuine operating business. No existing region in the directory covers Macedon Ranges, so a new region is suggested. Not a duplicate of any existing listing -- no other Macedon Ranges or peony-specific farm currently in the directory (Richmond Peonies & Cherries is an unrelated business in Tasmania).
