Derbyshire's fruit and vegetable producers range from the grand estate at Chatsworth, where the farm shop sells produce from the estate's own land and tenant farms, to family operations like Scaddows Farm in Ticknall, which has been growing PYO strawberries, raspberries, gooseberries, and blackcurrants for years alongside their own lamb and vineyard wine.
Organic veg box schemes like The Green Box Co in Glossop deliver seasonal produce across the High Peak. Lower Hurst Farm near Hartington grows organic vegetables alongside their beef herd. The county's sheltered valleys support soft fruit and orchard growing, while the upland farms focus on root vegetables and seasonal crops.
