  • Our Story

  • Orchards

  • Cider Making Process

  • Janet and Martin moved to Herefordshire in 1999 and set about realising a lifetime’s ambition to produce food in a natural and environmentally friendly way. The result, Butford Organics.

  • We have three main orchards which provide all our apples. We planted two of the orchards ourselves and the other is a mature cider fruit orchard.

  • Traditional cider making is a centuries-old process that requires both skill and patience. From picking the apples to milling and pressing to bottling every stage is crucial.

What others have to say about us

    Great ciders. Authentic; made with nothing but their own apples. Single variety apple juices too!

    Visited in 2021 and enjoyed a tour with Martin round the orchards. Have bought the perry and cider several times since. Both are a great accompaniment to Sunday lunch! And the cider brandy is delicious.

    Small but very great cider shop, perfect for lovers of natural ciders and perries ! Absolutely fantastic selection. Definitely a must visit if in area!
