Berries Direct Farming

Yesterday we were at Local Flavours at Norfolk Showground and our chief strawberry man got interviewed! We are all about supporting local for local and want to start having our strawberries stocked in local stores plus welcoming local workers to our farm but as Ilja says it is a hard job sometimes! We’ll be opening up recruitment again in February; watch this space

‪We’re at Norfolk County Showground today for #Localflavours2018 with our Norfolk strawberry 🍓 grower Ilja from Berries Direct. Looking forward to meeting buyers and supporting food, farming and countryside #lf18 #britishberries ‬

Sounds like our sister company Soloberry Limited had a great time in Asia at the Asia Fruit Logistica and doing a research visit Lots of good berry trends and interest in strawberries from the UK.. what's your favourite way to enjoy strawberries?

We’re busy picking at our farms in Norfolk... Murano and Favori - Great British strawberries and getting great reviews from customers when they pick them up in store

Happy Norfolk Day from everyone at our strawberry farms - we love where we work! We will be at Local Flavours at Norfolk Showground on 26th September; celebrating Local Produce https://www.localflavours.co.uk/ #norfolk #britishberries #norfolkday

The freshest tasting berries that our customers love. We have two sites run by esteemed strawberry growers Ilja Pavlov and Neil Spinks supply the freshest tasting berries that our customers love, whether that's from our farm gate sales or from national supermarket shelves. There is a focus on trialling new varieties, new growing methods and using the latest technology including using biomass-heated glasshouses to extend the season with high quality berries.

The Malling Centenary at BDF in Norfolk is now in its second flush... so much fruit to come! Keeping the team busy whilst we also pick Murano and Favori in tunnels
