Apples, Plums, Damsons

Cookers, Eaters, Juice & Cider

- Local & Heritage -

We hope you like our apples, plums and damsons. All of them have been chosen for their taste, flavour, heritage and if they are endangered.

​

See below to find out which ones are best for eating, cooking, making juice (or cider)

- and many of them can be used for both cooking & eaten fresh from the tree. 

​

Even further down the page we've put a list of the oldest trees and which ones come from Derbyshire & Yorkshire

and you can go to our other page to see pictures and read the fascinating stories behind their origins.
