Lightfoot's Farm - Microgreens & Nuts

Lightfoot's Farm, Silver Street, Sway, SO41 6DG

Not every farmer arrives at farming by a straight road. Pete's took him through Central Asia and the Middle East before landing, eventually, at a rundown farm in the New Forest - which turned out to be exactly right. In Pete's own words: "We are an agroecological farm producing microgreens which are delicious and super nutritious all year round in our vertical farm. Also nuts outside, amazing fresh and in season which is an emerging forest garden." What they grow is going into some of the best kitchens in the region. Gizzi Erskine puts it plainly: "I pride myself on sourcing the best of the best British produce. Microgreens have been hard to come by, but Lightfoot's Farm greens are brilliantly punchy in flavour while still being delicate in size." Andrew Du Bourg, Head Chef at The Elderflower in Lymington, is equally direct: "Working with a company that shares the same values as us makes my life that much easier. Their products are the best I've come by." Microgreens often contain 40 times the nutrients of their full-grown equivalents. No artificial chemicals are used. Vertically farming microgreens delivers huge numbers of portions of vegetables from a small space, sustainably, whatever the season.
