Well, it all depends how you look at it. For starters, all of our tomatoes are perfect examples


of their own particular variety. The sort of tomatoes you’d love to grow in your own


greenhouse at home. Fresh, firm fruit bursting with the juicy, mouth-watering


flavours we can all remember from years ago, but can


never seem to find today. And then there are some rather special tomatoes from


our local organic suppliers. supernicirkels r '■ ^ r { I ' / "J-' y'.- *•' '■ /'V- .u--' \ f^ Ahandful of varieties sharing

own bumble bees, kept exclusively for


the purpose of guaranteeing absolute perfection.

about as wonderful as you can get. Which is why when you say tomatoes, we say...“the best
