Spotlight on Nurtured in Norfolk 🌱 🌸 Founded by ex-chefs Allan and Sue Miller, Nurtured in Norfolk was born out of a passion for creating more than just a garnish – they wanted to add depth and flavour to every dish. 10 years later, they’ve transformed their vision into a 4-acre nursery, now supplying over 280 varieties of top-quality edibles, from cut micro cress and edible flowers to micro veg and sea vegetables. With a range of over 70 micro cresses alone, everything they grow is on a natural soil base, ensuring not only vibrant flavours but also a longer shelf life. Find their incredible range at our Western International Market and New Spitalfields Market sites! #NurturedInNorfolk #EdibleFlowers #MicroCress #SustainableFarming #FreshProduce #WesternInternationalMarket #NewSpitalfieldsMarket

High-quality produce only from trusted, known and respected growers. Operating throughout London since 1922.
About us
Since 1922 we have been growing and selling the highest-quality British produce with the utmost care and expertise. First and foremost, we are a family business. We’ve been growing and selling just shy of 100 years, so we’ve had a lot of time to hone our skills at producing the best, seasonal produce. In fact, we’re one of the only wholesalers left who still keep their fingers green. Our business is based on a simple idea: to grow and sell the best in British produce. And it’s all made possible by the close working relationships we have with our brilliant suppliers. Their skill for growing produce with care and attention to detail is second to none.

🧅 Meet Parrish Farms, a family-run farm in the heart of Bedfordshire, proudly managed by three generations of the Parrish family since 1927! Originally a dairy farm, they’ve been cultivating onions and shallots for 30 years on the rich soils of the Greensand Ridge, with a deep commitment to sustainability. 🌍 Nick and James Parrish work closely with the Greensand Ridge Local Action Group, using funding from the European Agricultural Fund to bring in cutting-edge direct drill technology. This helps improve crop growth, reduce seed waste, and cut down on resource use! 🐝 Environmental stewardship is key at Parrish Farms. With uncultivated field borders to boost biodiversity and GPS-controlled tractors for precise planting, they blend tradition with innovation across 150 acres of shallots. 🔋 The farm is powered by renewable energy from solar panels and has invested in advanced storage facilities to keep crops fresh. Plus, winter reservoirs and smart irrigation ensure water efficiency, even during dry spells. 🌱 As a LEAF Marque certified farm, Parrish Farms is dedicated to sustainable farming practices that protect the environment while producing the finest alliums. #ParrishFarms #SustainableFarming #LEAFMarque #Onions #Shallots #FarmToTable #FamilyFarm #RenewableEnergy #PrecisionFarming #EnvironmentalStewardship

C.J. Bean & Sons With over a century of farming heritage, C.J. Bean & Sons have been farming since 1900. Starting out with fruit sold in London markets during the 1940s and 50s, they transitioned to growing vegetables in the 1960s, supplying local wholesalers and Sainsbury’s. By the 1980s, they were back at London markets, and since 2008, they've been proudly transporting their fresh produce using their own lorries. Sustainability is at the heart of their operations. From reducing waste with returnable packaging to using fleece on half their crops, they minimise chemical inputs wherever possible. Their water conservation techniques, including boom irrigation and night watering, ensure efficient usage. Benefiting from a unique coastal microclimate, they grow cauliflower year-round, alongside winter brassicas like cabbage, kale, and sprouts. Potatoes and onions are stored on-site to maintain a consistent, fresh supply throughout the year. #SustainableFarming #LocalProduce #Brassicas #Cauliflower #Cabbage #Onions #FarmToFork #FamilyFarm #Sustainability #BritishFarming
