Peake Fruit have many farms in Essex and Suffolk, but the one I am most excited about is situated in Ardleigh, Essex. They produce strawberries from May right through till Novemeber due to some clever planning and different varieties.

New Home Farm is yet another example of local produce that is grown with our countryside in mind. The farm uses a state of the art irrigation system from their own resevoir to minimise water wastage. The variety of strawberries they grow are also naturally disease resistant so therefore reducing the need for soil sterilisation and some fungicides.
If you dont like strawberries then dont panic. Peake Fruit farms also grow over 40 different varieties of apples. They where even one of the first suppliers to provide Sainsburys and Morrisons with traditional and unusual English varieties. The fruit provided to the supermarkets is of such high quality that the apples are often taken straight from the orchard directly into trays and sent.
So, if like me you also now fancy some strawberries and cream, you should definitly hang on until May and try out some from New Home Farm.
