    Simon Weir has been farming at Turf Croft Farm in the New Forest for over 30 years. Specialising in organic herbs, he grows a wide variety in polytunnels throughout the warmer months, supplying us with almost every herb imaginable – from basil and oregano to chervil and bay. During the winter months, we also rely on his expertise to help source the finest organic herbs from a handful of trusted growers in Spain and Italy. Planting, picking and packing is all done by hand with a firm emphasis on sustainability; solar panels provide electricity; a reservoir and water butts supply irrigation, and a half-dozen beehives ensure efficient pollination of the plants, making the operation almost entirely self-sufficient.
