Client Testimonials

Juliana – 1,000 sq ft Orchard

“I came across the Land4Life website early on and thought it a fantastic opportunity. Shared with some friends who felt the same so 4 of us bought an orchard early on, in phase 1. It has been a pleasure working with Max and family in planning our orchard and we have also enjoyed visiting the land which is in a lovely spot. We have a good range of fruit trees ( lots of choices in planting) which have all been planted along with hedgerows for a natural fencing. Looking forward to our first harvests, picnics in the orchard and community social events.!”

Sam – 6,000 sq ft Orchard
“I purchased an orchard recently from land4life. I have always wanted to have a green space to plant some trees and grow some veg. When I found about this land, I contacted land4life immediately.
The team of land4life were very friendly and professional and that encouraged me to visit the site. Here we are. I am an orchard owner now 🙂
Since then Max and Oliver have done a lot of work on my orchard, most the trees planted. Hedging planted and the orchard looks great already.
The process of the purchase was very simple it took only half an hour for me to read through the papers and sign them.
The best thing of purchasing your allotment or orchard from land4life is you get a very friendly team who do their best to keep you happy and they do the hard work and plant whatever fruit trees, etc you like. The area around the orchard is very clean and quite and yet only 5 mins drive from the motorway. If you have always dreamt to have your land, don’t wait!”

From start to finish they have been hands on with me, helping me choose and design my orchard exactly how I would like it and have gone above and beyond. Meeting me at the orchard and going through every detail and really spending time to listen. They have wonderful plans for this land and I cannot wait to be part of the community
