  • About
I have found my dream crop; now all I have to do is persuade you to cat it. Most commercial fruit, and veg varieties have been bred over many generations for uniformity, yield, carlincss and cosmetic appearance, in the process they have lost the ability to look after themselves, needing to be mollycoddled with irrigation and constant weeding and for non-organic farmers, agrochemicals and fertilisers to coax out their impressive yields. To make matters worse, in our search for culinary stimulation we have of ten taken crops outside their climatic comfort zones. In contrast to this battle, it is such ajoy to grow a crop where it is really happy, as we find with the tomatillo harvest on our farm in france. Even in dreadful growing years, when their distant American cousins the chillies and peppers struggle the tomatillos arc rampant.
