Description:

Blackmoor Estate is a family-run mixed farm located near Selborne in Hampshire and is best known for its long experience of growing both traditional and new varieties of English apples, pears and plums. With its range of fruit enterprises, from rootstock and tree production at Blackmoor Nurseries, to orchards, storage and grading, to the Blackmoor Farm Shop, Blackmoor is involved in every link in the production chain. Blackmoor Farm Shop specialises in fresh fruit grown in the Estate's orchards and is sought out by those looking for produce in season from the farm, including: pears, strawberries, plums, apricots, quinces and many traditional apple varieties. It also has a coffee shop and sells a wide variety of locally grown vegetables; homemade cakes, flans, pies and bread; dairy products, English wines and cider; fruit juices and much, much more.

The annual Apple Tasting Day, which has been running for nearly 40 years, attracts several thousand apple enthusiasts.

Blackmoor Farm Shop can also be found between September and April - during the top fruit season - at Winchester, Alton and Petersfield farmers markets.
