Godshill orchards have sold their fruit & products for generations at the Orchard entrance and it was decided to refresh the facility. Sadly, Vivienne Medway passed to glory recently and so the family decided to re-name the self- service shop – Vivienne’s Larder in her honour.
Vivienne was Robert’s dedicated wife for some 42 years and a devoted mother to Simeon and Beth. As a Domestic Science/Food Technology teacher she made a valuable contribution to orchard activities. The new self service facility in Hollow Lane Godshill will offer fresh fruit and vegetables in season together with island milk 24/7.
Graham Biss, High Sherriff of The Isle of Wight offically opened the new facility by cutting the ribbon on Thursday 25th at 2.00 pm and then enjoyed tasting some of the fruit.
