Welcome to Grow Fruit Trees

Conserving Britain's Fruit Tree Heritage. Growing a Greener Future.

We are Grow Fruit Trees - a passionate, family-run fruit tree nursery based in the heart of Kent. For nearly 20 years, we've been dedicated to conserving Britain's rare and heritage fruit tree varieties and bringing them back to life in gardens, schools, and communities across the country.

Our mission is simple but powerful:

To get Britain GROWing again - creating a healthier planet, supporting biodiversity, and reconnecting people with nature, food, and the seasons.

Why Grow Fruit Trees?

We don't just grow trees. We protect history, support the environment, and plant for future generations.

Working with material from the National Fruit Collection at Brogdale - one of the largest collections of fruit tree varieties in the world - we carefully regenerate these trees through grafting, preserving their unique DNA and incredible stories. Every tree we grow is part of a living legacy.

Through our carbon offset programme, we partner with like-minded individuals, schools, and sustainability-driven companies to plant trees that make a difference - for climate, for communities, and for biodiversity.

How We Can Help

We offer a wide range of services to support you at every stage:

  • Finding the perfect tree - whether it's a thoughtful gift or a variety with personal meaning
  • Planning or planting an orchard - for your garden, school, or community space
  • Restoring neglected fruit trees - bringing old trees back to health
  • Solving pest and disease problems - using sustainable, chemical-free methods

Whatever your project, we're here with expert advice, practical support, and heritage trees that make a real impact.

Fruit Trees for Schools

Every fruit tree makes a difference to our planet, every single tree matters.

When you sponsor a fruit tree, it will be donated to a UK school or community group. These trees are more than just fruit – they bring education, environmental action, and lasting community benefits.

Each school or community group receives a pack of 10 trees. The trees are 3-year-old apple varieties, thoughtfully chosen to thrive in the local soil and conditions.
