Linscombe Organic Vegetables

(Exeter, Devon, UK)

Linscombe Organic Vegetables run an award winning vegetable box scheme and attend local Farmers' Markets with over 300 varieties of vegetables which have been grown organically on our own farm. We have been registered with the Soil Association since 1996.

The fundamental ethos of Linscombe Organic Vegetables is to supply our own home grown vegetables locally, keeping our environmental impact to a minimum. We stick to strong "green" principles - keeping packaging to a minimum, reducing waste, using returnable and reusable plastic boxes, delivering to collection points to keep transport movements down, and supporting other local growers and businesses.
Almost uniquely for a box scheme, all the vegetables in the box are produced on the farm - nothing is bought in or imported. We also raise almost all our own transplants.

We raise over 300 varieties of vegetable, including many heritage varieties, in order to ensure continuity of supply, and preserve the survival of the vegetable genes that would otherwise be lost. The wide diversity of crops supports a multitude of insects which provides food for many bird species.
