About Us

Experts in salad cress since 1956

We are a proud family business with decades of experience growing and supplying top-quality salad produce. Established in 1956 as a market garden, we began by cultivating salad onions, beetroot and radishes for wholesalers. By the late 1960s, we identified a growing demand for salad cress and decided to make it our specialty.

Cress has been a cherished British favourite for generations, quietly waiting to reclaim its place as a modern kitchen essential. That time has arrived, and we’re on a mission to bring salad cress back into the spotlight, celebrating its versatility as a fresh, peppery addition to today’s salads and sandwiches.

Alongside salad cress, we also grow an exciting variety of microgreens, pea shoots and living salads. Our passion has always been rooted in cultivating high-quality, nutritious products that taste just as good as they look.
