Elm Green was the name of my grandparents’ Suffolk pink farmhouse. It was there, and at home with my parents who were near to self-sufficiency in fruit, herbs and vegetables, that I learnt to appreciate the taste of home-grown produce. Tree-ripened fruits, crisp, sugar-sweet vegetables were treated simply and with care; abundant yet precious. My small business has since grown up in the High Weald hills and I love working in an industry that is about nourishment and the sharing of food.
