Nestled within over 40 acres of beautiful orchards, the fruit trees are at the heart of everything we do here at the farm shop. We have a wonderful array of apples, pears, plums and gages available from mid-Summer right through to mid-Winter. And all year round we have a fabulous range of juices that are pressed and bottled right here on site. The cider is worth a try, too!

Sample courtesy of Grumbo, cheers Graham! Hazy gold colour, bubbly white foam head that quickly dissipates away and aroma of apple, fleshy, wood, oak, vanilla, alittle funk. Taste is sweetish, apple, oaky, wood barrel, vanilla, some formic hints and drying tannins. Medium bodied, light carbonation, dry woody tannic finish. Quite drinkable.

6/12/2022. Bottle from Norfolk Lavender. Pours clear pale gold with a small bubbly white head. Aroma of apple juice, citrus, caramel, core, light funky notes. Moderate sweetness, light tartness. Moderate body, slightly watery, low carbonation. Light drying finish. Had an edge of tinned pineapple juice. Not bad.
