Our difficult to pronounce name Anathoth (arn-a-tot) Farm has a simple story. Anathoth means ‘answered prayer’ or ‘new beginnings’. We love what we do at Anathoth Farm and while a lot has changed since we started in 1987 we still have a simple goal: we want to make great tasting jams and chutneys that people love.

We’re proud to continue the Anathoth tradition of simple, honest jam made from real whole fruit. Now made on a corner of the original Barker family farm, the picture on the foil lid is indeed the view of the mountain range behind us – the heart of the South Island countryside. We are 8km from the nearest small town!
