Cobnut Cards
During the Winter, Kentish Cobnut plantations (platts) are transformed into magical and serene environments. We are delighted to offer you a unique snapshot of these heritage and beautiful Kentish landscapes in the Winter’s snow.
Our unique card packs feature a reproduction of a wonderful oil painting by Kentish landscape artist Jane Cannon.
Jane specialises in painting rural farming landscapes and identifies with the landscape tradition in British romantic and neo romantic art exemplified by artists such as Samuel Palmer and Paul Nash. Jane also look’s to the realism found in the work of artists such as J F Millet. See more of Jane’s work here
The painting on our cards shows a historic multi-stem cobnut plat in the snow. These trees have been pruned in the traditional style with gnarled knuckles at the top of the stems forming the main cropping area during harvest.
Send a snapshot of Kent and British farming to a loved one, friend or colleague.

Speckled markings feature on the golden flesh. They are typically harvested between August and September depending on conditions. If your Mirabelles arrive green allow them to go a lovely yellow in fridge or out of the fridge for quicker results, if ripening out of fridge avoid direct mid day sun and refrigerate when yellow.
Mirabelle plums feature in many French dishes including Tarte aux Mirabelles.

2024 Season – Finished for 2024 – Sign-up to get notified in 2025 below, select a weight and add your email.
We have a limited range of white cherries on the farm. They are an eclectic mix of varieties that are generally lighter in appearance and are a charming mix of reds and yellows on the outer skin. White cherries taste different to black/dark red cherries, they are still sweet but the flesh is a mixture of oranges, whites and yellows, they are ever so slightly reminiscent of a peach or nectarine but the flavour is still distinctly that of a cherry. They are certainly worth trying!
White cherries can still be red on the outside! So do not be shocked if you have a box of light red cherries. The more common difference is that the flesh inside the cherry is white / yellow opposed to red, purple or black. We could send any variety of white cherry we have so pictures are for display only.
Supply and availability – We have a very limited number of white cherry varieties on the farm. So our supply will be limited. We will be dispatching orders in the order they are received.
We may have to refund your order if we get more orders than supply. So please be aware to avoid disappointment.
