Welcome

Welcome to Kelsey Farms.

We are a well established, family run business specialising in the commercial growing and packing of soft fruit.

Based in the South East of England in Kent, we farm across 72 hectares of land and supply produce to some of the UK's best known supermarkets. All our fruit is chilled and packed on site in our bespoke packing facility which ensures the fruit reaches our customers in prime condition. We also recently installed a refridgerated vending machine on site to sell our fruit, in season, to anyone passing by.

Each summer over 250 seasonal workers arrive to live on the farm helping us to pick and pack our soft fruit. So if you are interested in a summer fruit picking job in the UK then you can find out everything you need to know about the farm and potentially apply online through this website.



Did you know...

  • Kelsey Farms expect to pick over 182,000,000 raspberries this season which, if laid end to end, would stretch around the M25 over 18 times. 
  • Raspberries contain strong antioxidants, including vitamin C, that help fight against cancer, heart and circulatory disease and age related decilne.
  • The Strawberry is the only berry that has seeds on its external surface. 
  • Strawberries are also rich in vitamin C, fibre, folic acid and potassium. They can reduce the risk of cancers and heart attacks and help in the reduction of systolic blood pressure. Fresh juice from strawberry pulp helps in recovering from fever and if combined with honey can also reduce inflammation.
