Tasmanian Winter Cherries?



My morning hunting and gathering foray at Footscray market [that's Melbourne Jeremy] today revealed a very curious un/seasonal treat.
These very fine looking? cherries at a quite reasonable price? packed in cute dinky boxes labeled
Fresh Tasmanian Cherries Class 1 Grown and Packed by Tas Valley Orchards?The very helpful sales people reassured me that they were from "America" and so are very good indeed.
Now I'm used to fake Prada and fake Nike but Californian cherries masquerading as Tasmanian?
Does anybody know if Tas Valley Orchards is real and someone has just got the boxes and re packaged them or if the boxes are fakes? Or has Tas Valley worked out a way of storing cherries till winter?
Steve are you involved in this Cygnet conspiracy?
Tas Valley seems to originate at Cygnet?
