It takes a lot of work to produce great-tasting tomatoes. Good thing the experts at, The Tomato Stall, have had the perfect recipe since 2007. Based on the Isle of Wight \u2013 which gets more sunshine than anywhere else in the UK \u2013 they grow their bounty on rich, fertile Arreton soil using a biodegradable growing system.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

2. Our planet is a priority<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Just like Mindful Chef, The Tomato Stall is passionate about the planet. They compost plant waste to enrich their soils, and support a natural ecosystem in glasshouses to control pests and diseases. The Tomato Stall even harvests rainwater from glasshouse roofs to irrigate their plants.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

3. The tomatoes are amazing!<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The most important thing? The Tomato Stall\u2019s tomatoes are incredible. They grow over 200 varieties each year, rigorously taste-testing them to make sure you only get the most juicy and delicious. Don\u2019t just take our word for it \u2013 give them a try in your box and taste for yourself.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
