A growing family cider business that has developed substantially in the last few years thanks to investment within the cidery as well as creating a new visitor centre that attracts thousands of visitors both locally and from further afield. The farm is in the village of Long Sutton, South Somerset and has full traceability of their product due to all apples being harvested from their own orchards as well as pressed on site. We currently have a team of seven, all of whom live locally and have varying roles within the business.
