Who we are
About the farm
We run our small market garden just outside the village of St Giles on the Heath near Launceston, on the Devon–Cornwall border; we, Lucy and Gareth, are professional horticulturists with a background in botanic gardens and conservation and moved here in 2018. On our 2.5 acres (about 1 ha) we grow seasonal vegetables, fruit and herbs in a polytunnel and outdoors using no-dig methods, from organic seed and without chemical pesticides or herbicides, including traditional favourites and more unusual edibles. Our produce can be ordered through the Tamar Valley Food Hub online farmers' market, with Friday delivery to your home or to collection points; we also supply chefs, restaurants and local shops.

How we check reviews: the reviewer's email address is verified with a confirmation email, and one address can review a farm only once. We do not check whether the reviewer has bought from the farm. Every review is checked by a person before it appears; reviews that are offensive, contain personal data or are not about the farm are not published. The “Producer” label is given only when the email address belongs to a FarmAtlas farm. The farm can reply once.
