About Laines Organic Farm
Growing traditional, organic, outdoor, season field vegetables since 1978. Recently certified biodynamic.
Laines Organic Farm Description
At the end of 1978 Toos Jeuken travelled on her bicycle from Holland and began farming here in Cuckfield. Laines Organic Farm grows organic, traditional, seasonal, outdoor fruit and field vegetables for local people and local whole-food shops. The farm is a flourishingly diverse and lively array of fruit, veg and artistic activates! The soil at Laines is called Horsham-Green-Sand, a wonderful sandy structure perfect for vegetable growing. It rewards Toos with tasty, healthy, colourful and fresh produce, year after year. Her aim is to keep the soil in good condition through organic and biodynamic practices. The autumn and winter crops stay in the field and are picked when ready or needed. Over the years she has tried to avoid using plastic packaging materials. Many people have seen her with elastic bands around her wrists, which are used for bunching up veg. Wwoofers, students and volunteers come from all over the world to help in the busy summer months. Toos is one of the original suppliers of Infinity Foods in Brighton, growing special varieties of squash and pumpkins for their customers, and continuing to do so 40 years on!
