Harrods launch new range of British seasonal produce

To satisfy shoppers desires to buy British foods, on Friday 19th February, Harrods will launch their inaugural range of seasonal produce which has been grown exclusively by growers and farmers in The East of England.

Working with specialist seasonal brand, From My Farm, Harrods will provide a comprehensive range of best in season British produce all year round. Each product in the From My Farm range is clearly stamped with the name and location of the grower which provides the shopper with the true provenance of the produce.

Charlotte Falkingham, founder of From My Farm said: “In the UK there is a growing demand for seasonal, British fruit and vegetables, so we’re sure the new range will prove popular. We know consumers want to support British producers and our research has also shown that shoppers feel produce tastes better when it is in season in the UK.”

From My Farm are staunch supporters of protecting the environment and because the produce is UK grown and transported by road, using existing vehicles, rather than flown in from abroad, it also helps cut CO2 emissions.

The type and amount of packaging used for fruit and vegetables is also becoming a growing concern for consumers. To help combat this, From My Farm has carefully chosen packaging which is environmentally friendly, and wherever possible, small compostable tags, recyclable and compostable paper and new home-compostable plastic bags have replaced traditional packaging.
