Groveland OrchardsGroveland Apple Orchards - The beginning of our Apple juice.Our orchards are situated in Roughton and Aldborough. The orchard in Aldborough is a rented orchard and is the main site of our apple picking. We also have an orchard near our farm shop in Roughton . We are currently in the process of planting a new orchard opposite are farm shop and we had our first crop this year of apples and pears. our orchards contain over 24 varieties of apples including discovery, jon-a-go red, cox, bramley and greensleeves. Most of our apples our taken to our apple juicing plant where we produce our 100% pure apple juice the rest are sold in our farm shop or to other local retailers.
We have recently built our own juicing and bottling plant at Roughton where we press our apples using a Voran Belt press. The juice is then put into bottles and pastuerised. By being involved in all the processes of the apple juice making we can assure the quality of the product.
This is the bottling unit which puts the apple juice into bottles. Our apple juice is then sold across Norfolk in our own farm shop , other local retailers and restaurants, pubs and cafes. We also participate in shows to meet our customers and give them free tastings of our 12 varieties and also allow them to ask questions about our product. |
