A Little Information About Our Vegetable Plants Video
A very short clip (slightly shorter than it should be!) showing our veg plants and how we grow and fully harden them off outside before dispatch - allowing our customers to safely plant straight out into the garden on receipt.
The clip was taken on 7th April 2011 - had it been autumn or even winter the veg plants being dispatched then would have still been picked and packed from outside.
