Specialist growers of baby leaf salad and watercress.

At TWC we believe in traditional standards of quality and value and the importance of farming in harmony with our environment.

We have a long and impressive heritage of production in Dorset and Hampshire, with 4th generation farmers dating back to the 1850's. As demand has increased over time, we have broadened our supply base by purchasing farms in Florida, USA and Jerez in southern Spain. These farms provide the bulk of the watercress sold in the winter months due to the slow growth of the UK crop at this time of year.

Watercress is packed with essential vitamins and minerals, classed as a Superfood it is versatile and truly unique. To find out more about how your watercress is grown, read our about us page or try tracing your product - you can even ask us questions!
