WEST GREEN FRUITS CHRISTMAS BARN 'COVID' STATEMENT:
(there is also a link to our Christmas website at the top of this homepage)
Hello everyone, we open on Sunday November 22nd –
Having received lots of enquiries about opening arrangements and ordering for trees, wreaths, our jams etc. we hope the following information will help you in these COVID times.
Do always contact us directly if you need to – contact details are at the end of this ‘letter’.
We are so appreciative of your support and loyalty and really value it.
Everyone’s kind words and thoughts mean the world to us and our staff as we work to ensure that your Barn experience is happy and safe.
We’re working to make The Christmas Barn Hartley Wintney, at West Green Fruits, as happy and enjoyable as ever, with particular emphasis on everyone’s safety and wellbeing when you visit us.
We will update this page as necessary and continue to put updates on our Facebook page – West Green Fruits
For those who would prefer to pre-order to collect or for delivery we are working to implement an online ordering system (it is taking a little bit of time so please bear with us!) but we still take orders by phone, text and e mail as always, so please don’t wait for us to join the 21st century online!
Just make sure we have a telephone number so that we can always call you to discuss your requirements.
When you come to collect we will let you approve your tree / wreath etc before you drive away.
For those with any added limitations this year we will assist in any way we can so that you can be confident for your safety and have the tree and decorations you want for your Christmas in this strange year.
While times may be complicated and challenging rest assured the Barn elves are busy and pulling out all the stops to make all things possible despite the pandemic!
We are so looking forward to seeing you and hope that you keep well and safe this winter.
With very best wishes from Andrew, Carolyn and all the Elves xx
OPENING TIMES
Daily 9:00 am – 5:00 pm
Nov 21st – Dec 21st (unless sold out)
VISITING
Everyone’s safety matters.
Please consider visiting us on a weekday this season if you’re working from home or taking a day off. This will help make a more even flow of visitors across all days of the week and prevent large weekends peaks necessitating a queuing system.
If we need to operate a queuing system you will be able to wait in your car and we will adopt a suitable protocol to manage visitor numbers.
We know choosing a tree is normally a family adventure; but, like so many things this year, your Christmas preparations can still be great fun even if done slightly differently.
Imagine - a tree ready and waiting along with all your decorations, a special tea or other treats and some Christmas music or a film could be an exciting surprise for your family coming home expecting a normal weekday evening.
MEET & GREET
We have increased the area within the Barn for this year and trees will be displayed in larger numbers by size, making it even easier for you to choose.
A one-way system will be operating round the Barn.
Please follow all guidance and any requests from staff who will be on hand to help and advise and please keep your group together and the number as low as possible for everyone’s comfort and safety.
Please:
CHOOSING YOUR TREE
Trees will be displayed in groups by size for you to choose from.
You will be given an identifying ticket from your tree to take to the payment area and youwill be reunited with your re-netted tree in the car park on production of your ticket.
Card payments are preferred to reduce handling of cash between customers and staff.
DECORATIONS / STANDS / JAMS from our summer fruits / MARMALADES / HONEY / CHUTNEYS etc
Face masks must be worn in all areas within the Barn.
We have a selection of our own homemade jams, Pig 'n Pickles chutneys, honey etc available along with gorgeous decorations, decorated and undecorated wreaths and tree stands.
Payment for trees and all other items will be taken in the ‘shop’ area as you leave the Barn and we ask that just one member of ayour group stays to pay while everyone else returns to the car.
In this way we can manage numbers most effectively and enable a comfortable visit for all of our customers.

Now back to the main reason you may have come to our home page!
West Green Fruits was established in 1997, and is a family run business of 25 acres set in farmland near Hartley Wintney offering an extensive range of fruit including; Strawberries, Raspberries, Rhubarb, Gooseberries, Tayberries, Tummelberries, Loganberries, Boysenberries, Black & Redcurrants, Blackberries New Potatoes and ready picked Summer vegetables. We also sell our very own Homemade Jams and Jude's Ice-Cream.
We want you to be able to pick delicious produce in lovely surroundings, as if in a huge garden. If you would rather not pick yourself we have ready picked produce for sale, and we can take orders for larger amounts.
We choose fruit varieties for their flavour, and while taste is very personal we believe our taste buds are pretty good at picking out berries which are delicious, and our customers confirm it!
Some of our varieties are not grown for mass supply for a number of reasons and so will only be found at some PYO outlets or possibly even in gardens.
We constantly look to providing you with the best and so if you have a particular passion let us know. Maybe your choice is something we have missed, so do tell us.
We look forward to welcoming you to West Green Fruits this summer.
Please call 01252845772 from May 1st for information
Our opening date will be announced as soon as we are able to. We are dependent upon the weather to produce our ripe crops for opening.
