Web design for chestnut growers

The chestnut season is about six weeks, and after that everything sold is from cold store or frozen.

In direct sales it is provenance that decides, not price: the farm, the method, the season. Telling that story sells to the people who are deliberately avoiding the supermarket shelf.

Delivery is the first point where the basket gets abandoned: the cold chain, the transit time, what happens in a heatwave. Explained honestly, it stops being a reason to leave.

Two buyers read the same page: the family ordering a box and the shop ordering a pallet. Minimum order, formats and lead time told apart stop each of them wasting the other's time.

Say where else you can be found: which markets, which shops, which restaurants use it. That list is proof, and it catches the customer who searches for the shop before they search for the farm.

Word of mouth now starts online: your next customer "checks you out" on Google before setting foot in your chestnut farm. A polished website tips the balance your way. We design it with that single goal: that customers buy chestnuts direct in season.

We think of your website as another team member: with online orders and direct sales working 24/7, plus origin and delivery and chestnuts and seasons. You focus on your chestnut farm; the website handles capturing and serving.

A website that loads in a blink, looks perfect on mobile and conveys the professionalism of your chestnut farm at first glance. Custom design, clean code and a simple panel so you stay in control.

A pretty website is no use if no one finds it. That's why your page is built optimised for SEO and local rankings: when someone searches for your chestnut farm in your city, you show up. We can also run your Google Business Profile and Google Ads campaigns.

In brief: web design for chestnut growers

  • Enough contrast, readable sizes and clean structure help older customers as much as they help Google.
  • Domain, content and logins stay in your name: you ask nobody's permission the day you want to change something.
  • Remote work with chestnut growers anywhere, over 15 years of experience and a price agreed up front.
  • You change texts, prices and photos yourself from a simple panel, with no technical know-how.

⚙️ Not just a website, a tool

A website for a chestnut farm is not a brochure: it is where somebody decides whether to call you. Everything on it should serve that one decision.

What your website includes

Six weeks a year

Dates, and pre-ordering.

Keeping them once they arrive

The fridge, and mould.

Freezing and peeling

Storing a year's worth.

Sizes, and roasting

Grades, and scoring the shell.

How we work with chestnut growers, step by step

  1. 1

    We look at your business

    We go through the sites ranking above you and work out where they are weak.

  2. 2

    Structure and content

    We write in your words rather than advertising words, and cut anything nobody reads.

  3. 3

    Design and build

    We set type, contrast and sizes so the site still reads in bright sun and at sixty.

  4. 4

    Launch and Google

    We test every form from the outside before launch — an enquiry must never fall into a void.

  5. 5

    Handed over working

    You get the panel, we show you how to use it, and we stay available for whatever comes up.

Frequently asked questions about web design for chestnut growers

When can I order? +

The harvest window, when pre-orders open and how quickly it ends, since fresh chestnuts exist for weeks rather than months. Customers ask in February and need an honest answer.

Mine went mouldy +

Fresh chestnuts are living seeds and must go in the fridge on arrival, not a fruit bowl. It is the commonest complaint and entirely preventable with one sentence.

Can I freeze them? +

Freezing raw or cooked, peeling before or after and how they behave later. It turns a six-week product into a year-round one.

What size should I get? +

Grading by size, which suits roasting and which suits purée, and why the shell is scored. Buyers do not know grades exist.

Do we need an online shop from day one? +

Not necessarily. A page per product with a way to order by phone or form sells while you decide whether shipping is worth it.

How do we explain shipping honestly? +

Say which days you ship, what the parcel costs and how it travels chilled. Vagueness there is what empties the basket.

Should certifications be on the site? +

Organic, PDO, food safety: with the certificate number and the date. It is what a professional buyer checks first.

Can we sell by subscription? +

Yes: a weekly or monthly box with automatic payment and a pause for holidays. It is the steadiest income in this sector and the one that holds up best out of season.

How many revisions are included? +

Two rounds before launch, and the small fixes afterwards without counting. What is not included is redesigning it twice, and we say so before starting.

Can you keep my current domain? +

Yes, and we prefer it. Losing a domain that has been printed on vans and business cards costs more than any redesign gains.

Do you need my logo files? +

If they exist, yes. If they do not, we work with what there is and tell you honestly when the logo is holding the rest back.

Will the site be fast on a bad connection? +

That is a build decision, not an add-on. Compressed images and no unnecessary scripts matter most exactly where coverage is worst.
