Cobnuts are very rich in vitamin E and in calcium, typically containing about 21mg and 141mg per 100g kernel (dry weight) respectively. They provide about 0.4mg and 0.55mg of vitamins B1 and B6 respectively per 100g dry weight.
Our gift bags are available in bag of 500g or 1kg. The bags are perfectly reusable and are made from jute, with a drawstring that seals the bag.

History:
‘Green Gages’ were named after Sir William Gage, 7th Baronet, they were first imported by Sir William into Britain in 1724 and became established as a luxury fruit. Greengages were later established in the newly independent USA and grown by George Washington. A significant number of cultivars have been established in the UK ranging from Cambridge Gage to Laxton’s Supreme.

Kent Cobnut Trees
Kent Cobnut Trees – Now Dispatching
They are available to collect by appointment or delivery. They are bare root and will be without a pot. These trees have been propagated on our own heritage Kent Cobnut trees some of which are 100 years old. This was featured on Marcus Wareing’s tales from the Kitchen garden. These are whips / clones from the heritage mother trees and so should be ideal for producing the Kent Cob variety.
Many garden centres 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.
They are suitable for planting most places in the UK. Two varieties are deemed preferable for pollination but not essential as common hedge row nut can assist with pollination. We cannot guarantee the size of the trees selected for delivery but every care is taken to select a good tree.
Cobnuts are packed full of vitamins, minerals and fibre. In winter the catkins on the trees brighten up the trees.
We can offer paid for consultation for large field plantings and management. Please email us if you want more than 10 trees.
All trees are different. Their roots, branches, shape vary. So images are only an indication of what the tree will look like.
We advise watering and planting promptly into the ground (if not saturated) 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 make sure that the root ball is level and not at an angle. Water regularly and monitor. Do avoid planting if the ground is totally saturated and wait until drier, perhaps store in a pot during this time. You may need to purchase or make a tree guard ifor protection in the first 4 years.
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. As we are now offering 2ft-3ft (61cm-91cm) whips we have begun this for you.
A useful pruning and management guide is available from the Kent Cobnut Association. Click Here
500g – 3Kg: Green/Golden Ennis Cobnuts
2023 Ennis Cobnuts Harvest – Sign up for 2023 stock notification below
The Ennis is a large, round and flavoursome cobnut. When green Ennis Cobnuts have tight green husks. As a nut they can be eaten fresh or used in dishes. They are popular due to their size in comparison to the Kent Cob and the Gunslebert. Ennis Cobnuts are usually in short supply so don’t miss out!
Our Ennis Cobnuts are available in weights ranging from 500g to 3kg and are harvested between October – November. Ennis is a later variety of cobnut.
Multi Orders: We now offer improved delivery rates but please note if you order or preorder different varieties of cobnut (Kent, Gunslebert, Ennis, Butler) or multiple items we will dispatch them together when all are available as we no longer charge delivery fees per item. Please order fresh fruit separately as most fruits are harvested before cobnut season.
500g – 3Kg: Dehusked Gunslebert Cobnuts
Tasty Dehusked Gunslebert Cobnuts
Our Dehusked Gunslebert Cobnuts are now available. The Gunslebert is a variety of hazelnut that has a unique and enjoyable flavour. As a nut the Gunslebert is more rounded than the Kent Cob and when green has a frilly husk. As a nut they can be eaten fresh or used in dishes.
Dehusked cobnuts should be kept cool to prevent the kernel (nut) drying. A salad draw is an ideal place for storage.
Want to know what to do with dehusked cobnuts? Look at our recipes. From Biscotti to pesto we have a tasty idea or two.
Our Gunslebert Cobnuts are available in weights ranging from 500g to 3kg and are harvested between September and October.

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

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.
