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! We have been having conversations with some fans about our efforts towards reducing waste and plastics recycling in New Zealand.  Read about our latest findings here.
