Who we are
About the farm
Our family business is at Chartridge near Chesham, Buckinghamshire, surrounded by 2 acres (about 0.8 ha) of land. We press, pasteurise and bottle apple juice from our own and our customers' apples (with personalised labels on request) – the pressing season runs from mid-August to early December – and we also offer cider, elderflower cordial and apple cider vinegar. We run a flock of about 250 Texel and Texel cross ewes on an extensive system and in the autumn fatten Welsh/lop-eared cross pigs on our apple pulp; our lamb and pork is sold freezer-ready, jointed and wrapped, and we also sell point-of-lay hens. Our apple juice is also available at Chesham and Berkhamsted farmers' markets and in local shops.

How we check reviews: the reviewer's email address is verified with a confirmation email, and one address can review a farm only once. We do not check whether the reviewer has bought from the farm. Every review is checked by a person before it appears; reviews that are offensive, contain personal data or are not about the farm are not published. The “Producer” label is given only when the email address belongs to a FarmAtlas farm. The farm can reply once.
