Our Feedback
Hi
I just wanted to say that this is an excellent site. I ordered seeds (veggies) and organic vegetable growing guide book and all I can say is that the service has been absolutely fantastic. Most seeds are sown and already starting to sprout. The Kitchen Garden leaflet is a fantastic idea. I have copied this and have one in the greenhouse and a spare in the house. I will definately be ordering from you again.
Thanks again for everything

If you're a fan of baby leaves then you can look beyond salads for inspiration; many other vegetables can provide tasty baby leaf mixes too.
In this category you'll find a list of leaves, salads and vegetables that are all capable of producing those small, tender leaves that are packed with flavour. Enjoy them raw on their own, with a simple dressing or as a delicious accompaniment to lunch and dinner. More...
Say the phrase 'baby leaf' and most will immediately picture a selection of tender salad leaves. And whilst we do supply a fantastic selection of salad leaves that can be picked as succulent, sweet, fiery and peppery baby leaves, we are also keen to open your eyes to the wider range of baby leaves available for harvesting throughout the year.
Many vegetables - particularly oriental veg and leafy vegetables - can also provide a variety of 'baby leaves' that are so flavoursome they can be enjoyed with little need for preparation. In this category you will find our 'best picks' of salads, vegetables and more that can be enjoyed as baby leaves.
Salad leaves and leafy vegetables tend to prefer fertile, free-draining soil, salad leaves in particular preferring well-conditioned soil that is able to retain moisture without becoming waterlogged. So, preparation and maintenance is the key to sustaining a healthy, happy crop that will keep giving throughout the growing season.
