ABOUT US
Hi, I've been picking sloes in Norfolk and Suffolk for the last 11 years. Every year, I look forward to August picking sloes to sell to businesses and the general public.
The scenery is always amazing, views over the coastline are sure to make each day special, however the same cannot always be said about the weather!
Sloeberries are in season August - December. We rely very heavily on our friends, the bees, to pollinate in March/April so that we are able to enjoy the fruits. This means that you can pre-order sloes with us all year round and fresh sloes will be delivered to you once ripened.

I've been making Sloe Gin for more than 15 years now but for the last 2 years a late frost has killed off all the blossom in my usual Blackthorn haunts. Last year in desperation, I bought some dried sloes off the Internet. Never again. Nothing I did could reconstitute them I so went without. Came across this web site by accident and have been mightily impressed. The quality of sloes is amazing and I also bought 1lb of Damsons to have a go. The colour and condition is fantastic, so is the value, and I will probably never bother to pick my own again. Thanks guys. The magic begins......
