Growing Vegetables
We are a family run business based in the South West near Churchill In Somerset that is passionate about growing Veg and getting the nation to grow their own vegetables.
Grow your own has made a huge come back over the last couple of years and no wonder with supermarket vegetable prices continuously on the rise and people wanting to know where their food has come from and wanting locally produced food.
We challenge every one to grow at least one pot of veg and see and taste the difference. We at Vegetable Plants Direct have the largest choice of Veg Plants in the UK with over 800 varieties to choose from for all sorts of soils, locations, pockets and size.
Also local delivery/pick up now only applies for North Somerset and no longer for the Bude area as all plants are being grown in Somerset now
