  • Carrots - I like the “Nantes”, they are easy to grow, sweet and the children love them.

  • Parsnips – “Tender & True” – This variety certainly does what it says on the tin!!! Always a fabulous large crop, producing good sized parsnips, excellent flavor.

  • Runner Beans – “Prize Winner” – excellent crop, producing a long harvest, a good all rounder.

  • Leeks –“ Musselburgh” - this is a variety that I have found never lets me down, it lasts well through the winter, remaining sweet and crisp.

  • Peas – “Hurst Green Shaft” – produces a good main crop harvest, can be picked early for sugar snap. Lovely raw or cooked.

  • Sweetcorn – F1 Prelude is a good variety, the corn stays sweeter for longer giving a good long harvest.
To get you started I will send, enclosed with your delivery, a selection of my favourite crops. Above is an example since selections may vary depending on the season.
