Bought these as a birthday gift for my boyfriend. He would live on them if he could. They arrived promptly with minimal packaging so very impressed. The cobnuts look fantastic. They are large, clearly freshly picked and absolutely delicious. I would highly recommend Roughway Farm, the cobnuts and will I definitely be a returning customer. Their customer service is excellent too – I had to phone them after I was a bit of a dipstick during the order process, but they sorted it out promptly. Thank you Roughway Farm, you’ve made my bloke’s day.

Red Squirrel Cobnut Mix – Now taking pre-orders for the 2019 crop
Roughway Farm has supplied cobnuts for Red Squirrel conservation projects across the UK. We currently sell 20kg sacks of mixed cobnut varieties that are suited for squirrel consumption. These can now be ordered online in larger ranges up to 140kg. Our squirrel cobnuts do vary in terms of variety and appearance but they are all grown in Kent and are certainly enjoyed by the squirrels! If you want British sourced Squirrel food then we recommend buying from Roughway.
We now also have smaller 3kg packets available to order for home use in gardens.
—————————————————————————————
This product is not extensively sorted to keep costs low. These nuts are not recommended for human consumption due to the ranging quality and size.
For orders of over 140kg we recommend emailing store@roughwayfarm.co.uk
Images for display purposes. Examples of some of the cobnut varieties used in our squirrel mix.
We now have a number of Kent Cobnut trees available in 7 Litre pots – We are out of 3 litre Kent Cobnut trees. These trees are on British grown roots and are suitable for planting most places in the UK.
These are ideal for planting and producing high yielding trees. Many garden centers currently sell seedling trees and these usually yield very few cobnuts. These trees are the same trees that we grow on the farm and if properly maintained should produce a good crop of Kent Cobnuts.
Cobnuts are packed full of vitamins, minerals and fibre. In winter the catkins on the trees brighten up the trees.
Two varieties are deemed preferable for pollination but not essential as common hedge row nut can assist with pollination.
The trees do vary in size and shape but are generally between 30cm and a meter. We cannot guarantee the size of the trees selected for delivery but every care is taken to select a good tree.
On Arrival:
We advise watering the pot and planting promptly into the ground or into a large pot for later planting if required. The pot should have room to allow further root growth. The tree will need a healthy watering over the first few days.
If planting dig a hole twice the size of the pot and tease out the roots.Make sue that the root ball is level and not at an angle. Water regularly and monitor.
The aim after this point will be to manage the growth of branches. These should be allowed to form at least 60cm from the ground.
