Who we are
About the farm
As a workers' co-operative, we have been growing certified organic vegetables since 1995 at Bomarsund near Bedlington, Northumberland, twelve miles north of Newcastle upon Tyne. On our twelve-acre site (about 4.9 ha) and in five large polytunnels we grow over 50 types of vegetable in a five-year rotation, certified by the Soil Association; in 2009 we planted over 50 fruit trees and have since acquired a small orchard nearby, so our own Northumbrian apples go into the fruit bags. We run a veg and fruit bag box scheme delivering to collection points throughout the North-East; new customers join with a four-week online trial order, and we take on volunteers, especially from April to October.

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.
