About us
Our story began in 1976, when Peter Barfoot, a fifth-generation farmer, started growing a single crop in the unique microclimate of the Hampshire Basin. We are still a family-owned business, but we now sustainably grow, prepare and deliver exceptional fresh sweetcorn and speciality vegetables at farms and facilities around the world. We’ve pioneered the supply of many semi-exotic vegetables to the UK. Our customers include the major supermarkets and leading national restaurant chains. We strive to deliver new and exciting ways for consumers to enjoy vegetables that are produced as sustainably as possible. Our founder, Peter Barfoot, has been awarded a CBE for Services to Sustainable Farming and his philosophy remains at the heart of all we do “Look after the land like you are going to farm forever”.

Better with butternut! We’re super proud to be partnering with Veg Power CIC and SAKATA Vegetables Europe S.A.S. on a campaign to inspire families to enjoy this wonder veg. Incredibly delicious, nutritious, versatile with the added benefit of a natural (packaging free) long life we think butternut is BRILLIANT. We’re really excited to see more families discover its magic! Look out for the special butternut labels in store at Sainsbury's for more info 🧡 https://lnkd.in/e3fNad8j #BetterWithButternut #SeasonalVeg #butternutsquash #squash #autumnfood #autumn #vegetables #eatmoreveggies

The bees knees! This year Ben from our farm team and @lagnessfarmshoney has been keeping bees on the farm. Adjacent to our courgettes and where we are growing a mixture of plants to encourage soil health and biodiversity (Govt. funded Sustainable Farming Incentive ‘SFI’), the bees are loving life! As Ben explains bees are crucial to our ecosystem, we’re very grateful to them for this and their honey which is simply sensational! 🐝🙌 #sustainablefarming #farming #bees #beekeeping #beekeeper #nature #britishfarming #farmlife #honey #vegetables
