Gunslebert Cobnut Trees
£14.99 – £29.99
Potted Gunslebert Cobnut Trees – Out of Stock
We now have a number of Gunslebert Cobnut trees available in 7 Litre pots – We are out of 3 litre Gunslebert 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.
A useful pruning and management guide is available from the Kent Cobnut Association. Click Here

Fresh White Cherries – 3Kg
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.

3kg, 20Kg – 140kg: Red Squirrel Cobnuts
Red Squirrel Cobnut Mix / Squirrel Feed – Currently Dispatching: 2023 Dehusked stock. Dispatching Husked 2024 Stock
Roughway Farm has supplied cobnuts for Red Squirrel conservation projects across the UK for over 50 years. From Cornwall to the Scottish Highlands our cobs have been enjoyed by our native squirrels.
Our red squirrel cobnuts are mixed cobnut varieties that are suited for squirrel consumption. Our squirrel nuts vary in terms of size and appearance. Our squirrel nuts are all grown in Kent and are certainly enjoyed by the squirrels!
We currently sell a range of weights from smaller packets for home use in gardens to larger bulk quantities in 20kg boxes. Please note we now place all sack orders in boxes due to a request from our courier. If you want a larger order please email and we are happy to organise.
Our Squirrel Cobnuts are harvested between September and October each year.
Please keep in mind that our cobs are kept cool to keep the kernels in good condition. This means that husked nuts in particular can be a little damp late season (Late Nov- March) and so should be allowed to air on arrival. The dehusked nuts by December and into the new year are generally drier and are preferred by some customers for handling and appearance. The squirrels however are happy with both.
If you want British sourced Squirrel food then we recommend buying from Roughway.
—————————————————————————————
This product is not extensively sorted to keep costs low. These nuts are not recommended for human consumption due to storage and the ranging quality and size.
For orders of over 140kg we recommend emailing store@roughwayfarm.co.uk
