Brilliant concept, outstanding quality, A+++
Mike called me to check I’d be in to accept the delivery and gave an accurate time frame. He was personable and gave me details about the pick, thanked me for the order and was an all round nice guy.

Beautiful big cherries that beat anything in the supermarkets
We had hoped the cherry boxes would arrive for Christmas but they arrived for my Birthday instead and what a gorgeous gift they were. Best cherries I’ve eaten in years. We’ll order again because a carbon zero farming future is what we need. Good work team!
