Matthew runs Garden Harvest, a market garden based at the same Tolleshunt D’arcy farm that Roy and Rita’s vegetables come from.
He grows Garlic, French beans, Celery, Radish, Herbs, Shallots, Kohl rabi and Runner beans.

Matthews’s passion for vegetable production comes from time spent as a young lad around his grandparent’s farm at Tolleshunt D’arcy in Essex.
Matthew has furthered his knowledge through studies at Writtle college and a range of industry experience.
Garden Harvest was set up to compliment the range of produce offered by Roy and Rita and to offer customers more interaction with their local producer, reintroduce seasonality and encourage more people to back British produce while improving their own quality of life.

Testimonials

The very best 'thing' over Easter has been the fresh fish. Having watched your video about the Cornish fishermen,I went on Thursday(before Goodfriday) and got fish that had been swimming around earlier that day and bound for the sushi restaurants in the city. The freshest monkfish ever.Really amazing.
Lorna, N5.
