We’ve been growing fresh food since 1977, beginning as a small family business with just over 1ha of tomatoes. Now we have 48ha across our nurseries in Sussex, Norfolk and Cambridgeshire.
Over the years we’ve become known for the best quality and for pioneering sustainability. Our team has over 300 years of combined experience in growing the best tasting, freshest food.
We’ve always been at the forefront of reducing environmental impact, whether that is using bumblebees for production or taking care of every drop of water we use. Most recently at our nurseries in Norwich and Ely, we’ve become one of the first growers to use waste heat from water treatment plants and reservoirs, reducing carbon footprint by up to 60%.
We now account for nearly 20% of tomatoes and 25% of cucumbers grown in the UK.

We operate from 3 sites.
Ely
One of the world’s most advanced greenhouses in Ely, Cambridgeshire. Our renewably heated greenhouse will have the capacity to grow 10 per cent of the cucumbers consumed in Britain
Norwich
From our brand new, state-of-the-art greenhouse in Trowse, Norwich, we’re proud to be leading the way to a brighter future for British food. No other UK tomato or cucumber producer is doing what we do.
Sussex
We’ve been growing tomatoes at Pollard’s Nursery in Barnham near Chichester, West Sussex since 1977. From our original plot of just 2.5 acres, we’ve grown to be one of the largest tomato nurseries in the UK, whatever our size, we’ve never lost sight of the importance of quality, teamwork and innovation.
