Welcome to Potash Farm

Potash Farm is situated at the southern end of the West Kent village of St Mary's Platt in the beautiful rolling countryside between Sevenoaks, Tonbridge and Maidstone. It is the first website to sell cobnuts in their green, golden and de-husked states, as well as offering an attractive assortment of associated merchandise that provide excellent Christmas, Easter and one off gifts.

The Potash Farm range of exclusive products are now available through a network of over a hundred shops, hotels, restaurants and cafés throughout Kent, East Sussex and London.
