Our blackberries are grown in the heat of Guatemala and Spain to create a truly sweet and delicious berry. This rich, dark fruit is a true superfood and powerhouse of vitamins A, B, C and E, calcium, fibre and iron. What a great way to enjoy your five or more a day!
For us, there’s no better way to start a day on the farm than to pack our juicy blackberries into a smoothie.
