Harvesting apparatus for harvesting fruit, berries, and similar produce is disclosed, wherein the apparatus includes a plurality of harvesting fingers which are subjected to rotational and vibrational movement by shaker heads. The shaker heads are in assemblies of at least two shaker heads, and each shaker head of a given assembly is coupled to produce the same rotational and vibrational movement of each head. The shaker heads are moveable transverse to a longitudinal horizontal axis of the harvesting apparatus, and are pivotable, so that they can conform to the shape of bushes bearing the desired fruits, berries or other produce.
