Meet Our Local Producers

At Harvest we are proud to work with some of the finest local growers and producers, from small specialists to award winning farms and market gardeners. We stock a whole range of fresh and ambient products from Hampshire, Dorset, Wiltshire and the Isle of Wight.

These are some of the reasons why eating local produce can be good for you and your community.

  • Freshness and nutrition: Locally grown crops are harvested at their peak, often arriving at the market within 24 hours of picking. So you can be sure you’re getting the freshest produce from farm to table. Local foods often retain more nutrients.
  • A safer food supply: Local food is less likely to be contaminated during transport.
  • Supports the local economy: Buying local produce supports local growers and the community.
  • Beneficial for the environment: Local food doesn't have to travel as far, reducing the carbon footprint of food transportation. Small-scale local production also helps to eliminate the waste of unneeded products made to adhere to overseas minimums.
  • An investment in the future: Supporting local agriculture helps to preserve farmland and green space.
  • Knowledge and engagement: Local food can encourage you to learn more about the origin of your food and the production methods used by the farmers. You can also talk to the producers directly and get information about their practices.
