Orchards can be places to relax and enjoy - an elegant bench placed under dappled shade, a hanging hammock chair to relax in, chickens (even if not real) scratching in the grass, and maybe the odd helpful fruit basket or orchard ladders to help with the harvest……..

Why store apples in old chest of drawers, when these gorgeous racks can grace your harvest store?
Apple racks are an easy way to keep and store apples through the Autumn. The racks can also be used to store other fruit such as pears, plums etc.
The 5 drawer rack is a great size for those with a couple of apples trees and for those with a larger orchard, the 10 drawer rack gives lots of extra storage space.
The shelves on the apple racks are slatted to allow the air to circulate round the fruit.
The apple racks are best kept in well ventilated places such as a shed, garage or garden outhouse. If the conditions are cool and dark the fruit will store for much longer. Always store unspoilt fruit - remember, one bad apple…
The pine is FSC certified and the racks are delivered fully assembled.

Made of high quality, thick undyed and unbleached, woven organic cotton. The hammock chair gently supports your back, head and legs making the chair very comfortable to sit in, unlike some hanging chairs with metal frames. The hammock chairs are fitted with a swivel to prevent over-winding and the rope from fraying.
We recommend the hammock chair fixing set, the kit comes with a rope to attach the chair securely to a tree and the snap clip allows the chair to be easily unclipped when not in use, preventing the problem of a wet and sodden hammock chair languishing in the garden. Or if you have 2 trees in different parts of the garden, with 2 fixing kits you can easily move the hammock chair between them!
The fabric can be easily removed to wash at a cool temperature if required and allowed to air dry not tumble dry.
The hammock chairs are handcrafted in Colombia.
The hammock chair will support a weight of 130kgs.
As seen on the BEST IN SHOW and Gold winning garden at The Malvern Spring Gardening Show 2011.

The Fermob 1900 range is, we believe, the finest metal garden furniture anywhere in the world.
A classic French design that is often copied, but no one gets close to it. When you look at the hand-forged scrolls of the 1900 range, you realise the craftsmanship that goes into the making of each piece.
Fermob furniture receives a very high protection treatment so that it can be used outside in all weathers. During the 22-stage process involving the use of 18 treatment baths, the metal receives an anti-corrosion treatment and then a UV resistant powder coating which doesn’t fade in the sun. This process gives protection against rusting for years. The 1900 bench seats 2 people comfortably and is available in a range of striking colours with Linen and and Willow working particularly well in the UK.
There are also fine Chairs and Armchairs to match as well as a fantastic Hanging Armchair and Tables.
Please call 0845 6052505 if you wish to order alternative colours.
3 year guarantee.

We love this harvest bucket - made from sturdy steel wire, it is ideal for harvesting anything from your vegetable plot such as potatoes, courgettes, carrots to cauliflowers.
Lift your spuds and let the soil spill through the basket back to the ground.
And if you don’t have a veg patch … and just love the basket then use it to store anything from kindling wood and old newspapers, to balls of knitting wool…

Whether he will keep the real foxes out of the garden we will never know, but this life size Rusty Fox is a lovely rusty piece of garden art.
Made from flat sheet metal with a flat metal base and with a rusty weather worn appearance he looks very at home trotting across the lawn.
If your fox is situated in an exposed position, we suggest you either angle him into the prevailing wind or alternatively drill a couple of small holes in the base to allow for metal pegs to be inserted.

Easy to tend pigs, which have the look of pigs in the orchard without the hassle of tending them. They only like looking at apples ;)
Collect the family!
Made of flat sheet rusted metal on a flat oval base, which will weather gracefully. If your pigs are situated in an exposed position, we suggest you either angle the pigs into the prevailing wind or alternatively drill a couple of small holes in the base to allow for metal pegs to be inserted.
If you like your pigs , er, more rounded, why not take a look at Percy Pig - although he is much smaller than this family.
