Fresh watercress straight from our farms. Grown in mineral-rich spring water on our farms in Dorset, Hampshire and Spain, our watercress is hand-harvested at its best, then bagged unwashed to give maximum shelf life.
In Victorian times watercress was picked and sent by rail around the country to provide affordable, quality nutrition to the nation. It was sold in bunches and often eaten on the go by factory and city workers, we like to think it may have been one of the first (and certainly healthiest) fast foods!
