  We've always been at the forefront of reducing environmental impact, whether that is using bumblebees for production or taking care of every drop of water we use. At our nurseries in Norwich and Ely, we've become one of the first growers to use waste heat from water treatment plants and reservoirs, reducing our carbon footprint by up to 60%. We now account for nearly 20% of tomatoes and 25% of cucumbers grown in the UK!
