The Tomato Stall was created in 2007 to showcase the speciality organic and conventional tomato varieties grown on the Isle of Wight nursery, and taken direct to the customer. The Island’s unique micro-climate coupled with high light levels help to grow tomatoes that are bursting with natural flavour and allow to fully ripen on the vine to reach its full potential. It was an exciting time, loading vans with freshly picked fruit at the crack of dawn and making the journey to farmers’ markets in London. The reception the tomatoes received was overwhelming and, over time, The Tomato Stall travelled far and wide trading all over the south and throughout central London including the now famous Borough Market.
