Garden Side Salad
Our food: Lettuce
Our lettuce
In our premium salads we use six varieties of lettuce including: Iceberg, Romaine, Carrot, Lollo Rosso, Tatsoi and Spinach.
Supporting British farmers
During the English growing season - May to October - we source our lettuce from farms in East Anglia and Sussex.
Ensuring freshness
During harvesting the lettuce is quickly cooled to 2°C to retain crispness. In the summer months, lettuce is available for preparation within two hours.
Being environmentally aware
In the UK, water recycling is used to irrigate the crops during the summer months, while the waste lettuce is used as compost.
