In Loving memory.....

We lost two special souls at the end of 2025.

Firstly my father Peter Boyd, the founder of this orchard (1981) passed away, in his sleep, on the morning of Guy Fawkes day, nearly two years to the day of my mother Judy's, passing.

He was 91.

He never liked funerals so didn't want one for himself either.

He was pleased to hear that the crop is looking as good as ever and should be due to open for you all in January.

Then on the first of December, when her weary little body finally told us it had given everything it had, we made the heartbreaking decision to let little Sally the dog, go. The vet came to the house so she could drift off peacefully in the place she loved most, surrounded by the people who loved her.

For over 17 years this delightful little soul used to light up the farm at 828 Shands Road - she was like the maitre d’, meeting and greeting visitors both to the house and the blueberry patch.

The place won't be the same without her

Gone, but not forgotten, rest easy, little Sally.   ♥️
