Our Producers Buck Brothers - All Brassicas Buck Bros Is a Third Generation Family-Owned Business Which Was Established in 1915 Our Producers Buck Brothers - All Brassicas Buck Bros is a third generation family-owned business which was established in 1915. They currently farm 250 acres of marsh land in Hesketh Bank which is situated by the Ribble estuary in West Lancashire. They are main growers of Cauliflower, Spring Cabbage, Savoys and Brussels Sprouts. Cockerill a family business for over 70 years - Jacket Potatoes During the depression of the 1930s the founder of the company, Ronald S. Cockerill, began farming a rented plot of land to grow carrots, later expanding with the acquisition of a farm tenancy near York. Potato and carrot trading operations developed alongside farming activities, and became the mainstay of the business following our role in the ‘Dig for Britain’ war campaign, distributing farm produce to those in greatest need. Martin Cockerill, the present managing director and son of the founder, joined the company in 1967 and over the following years developed an aerial crop spraying service and a pre pack business serving retail multiples and large wholesalers. They have enjoyed substantial growth over the past five years and now operate a modern pack house with storage and grading facilities at Dunnington, where they have offices and a quality analysis laboratory. The site at Barmby Moor has also been developed for the storage of crisping potatoes, with high capacity washing and loading facilities. Sam Cockerill joined the company in 2003, adding a third generation to the Cockerill family business, as they look forward to another 70 years of growth and change. Fylde Fresh & Fabulous - Maris Piper Situated in Weeton, Preston, Colin has been growing potatoes for 21 years building up to 1200 acres and becoming one of McCain Foods largest growers. Colin is also a former Director of the British Potato Council and is Board Member of the new potato industry body, Potato Council Ltd. Fylde Fresh and Fabulous are our suppliers of Maris Piper, Cabaret, Victoria, Markies and Ramos. Throughout the year we mainly use Maris Piper for prepping. Gores of Tarleton - Nadine, Charlottes and Washed Whites Our suppliers of local washed Whites, Nadine and Charlottes is Gores of Tarleton, Andrew Gore farms on the moss peat in Lancashire. He has built up a successful potato growing, washing and packing enterprise for himself and other local growers. What is unusual about his production is that he over winters Nadine in the field. This is done entirely on the moss land. The skin finish of the produce that field storage gives ensures a supply of high quality potatoes throughout the winter. Field storage is most unusual in the UK but this story shows how successful it can be. H & P Ascroft, Worthingtons Farm - Beetroot, Red, Candy, Golden and Baby Beetroot The Ascroft family have been farming the land around Holmes in Lancashire since the turn of the century. The family tradition is currently in the safe hands of Peter and his wife and business partner Rosalind. Against the modern trends of monoculture (growing one crop only) they have chosen to stick to the traditional way of growing a variety of arable crops in rotation so as the goodness stays in the soil and pest and diseases are kept to a minimum. Poskitts - Carrots MH Poskitt is a family owned farming business based in the East Riding of Yorkshire specializing in the growing of root vegetables. Produce is grown, washed, packed and distributed all from one site enabling control in all aspects of production. A constant strive for perfection has grown the customer base and has developed and strengthened their position as one of the leading producers in the country. Robert Wright & Sons - Carrot Grower Robert Wright & Sons, Owned and farmed by Philip Wright and his son Stephen. A family business in Scarisbrick, Ormskirk passed down from Stephen’s Grandfather Robert. Carrots are the main crop of the farm along with cereal, wheat and barley. The farm grows and packs between 15 and 20,000 tonnes of carrots a year, supplying mainly fruit and vegetable wholesalers. Huntapac Produce Ltd - Parsnips, White Turnips and Carrots Huntapac Produce Ltd is a third generation family-owned business, which was established in 1942. Nestled in the village of Tarleton in the heart of Lancashire, they specialise in growing, packing and distributing a variety of organic and conven- tional root vegetables, brassicas and salads. Originally Huntapac supplied the local Fruit & Vegetable markets in Lancashire and Yorkshire however in 1967 a new pack house was built to cope with the increasing demand for high quality produce. Carrots are sown by Huntapac's own experienced farm staff from January to May, when the early season carrots having lain under polythene to speed growth, are ready for harvesting, they are lifted during the night and transported to the factory at Tarleton in Lancashire where they will be washed, polished, graded and packed ready for the customer. These early season carrots are harvested by the top-lifting method where they are lifted from the ground by their tops. From October onwards until the end of the season share-lifting is used where the whole bed including the soil is taken. S C Farrington -Growers of Broccoli and Chinese cabbage The Farrington family has farmed in Lancashire for many hundred of years, history dates them back to 12th century. In more recent years this branch of the farming family has found its base in Hesketh Bank growing broccoli on the finest alluvial silts in Northern England. The area of land holds an abundance of minerals carried from the higher reaches of the River Ribble. The 2500 acres of cultivated land on the Ribble Estuary charge a natural high calcareous ph level of 7+, created by a tidal influence which is ideally suited for brassica production. Our current production is geared to broccoli season. Quality traceability and continuity of supply is paramount in this day and age and as a dedicated family of growers we offer this service backed by UK and EU Assured produce alongside Global GAP Assurance standards. Alan Forshaw - Growers of Celeriac, Celery, Fennel, Pumpkins, Flat Lettuce and Oakleaf Alan Forshaws of Tarleton, Preston, a family business that are passionate about the produce they grow. They won't pick if it isn't ready! They offer a full range of lettuce grown under glass and outdoor for a year round supply. Blackdown Growers - Herbs, Rocket, Red Chard, Spinach and De-lux Mixed Leaf Salads As a small family business Blackdown Growers has moved forward by diversifying into many exotic types of small volume lines for the processing and catering industry. They are committed to updating our systems of production and supply including all aspects of germination, growing, cooling, and sales. This enables their customers to receive products in the best possible condition. The growing of quality, well textured, fresh, leafy salads and herbs is a difficult and often tedious job. The fresh produce industry has continued to reflect major changes in both the widening of its sourcing and the contraction of its structure. This, in turn has been linked to a greater level of selection and choice. As this has happened it has led to a far greater interest in exotic and specialist produce. Duerden Brothers - Salad Cress, Beansprouts, Watercress and Gems Established in 1917 in Little Eccleston, Preston, this third generation business is run by two brothers Paul and James Duerden. Their main crops are Salad Cress, Watercress and Beansprouts. A fleet of five chilled vehicles deliver around mainland Britain. Johnson and Swarbrick of Goosnargh Sole Producers of Goosnargh Duckling and Cornfed Duck Situated on the edge of the Ribble Valley Johnson and Swarbrick have been producing the finest poultry products for the last three decades. Bred on a totally natural diet the duckling and chicks have the freedom of large airy barns to run around in. The poultry benefit from a slow growing process which gives the finished product great texture and flavour. Bryans Salads - Producers of our bagged salads Bryan's Salad's Ltd is a family owned and run business and they have been trading for the past 30 years as salad producers. They grow a large proportion of the salad and vegetables in Tarleton Preston Lancashire and have over 40 full time staff and provide employment for nearly 100 people in the busy harvest periods. Their vast production facility is equipped with state of the art washing, mixing and bagging machinery and is housed in a temperature controlled environment. Some products are source locally from neighboring farms to compliment their salad products. Bryans farm is located in the quaint little village of Tarleton, Lancashire, the salad and vegetables are grown on the rich and fertile soils of Tarleton Moss. This area has for many years been renowned for the production of fine salad and vegetables. They have over 110 acres of lettuce and produce Continental leaf, Radicchio and Lollo Rossa lettuce. The salad and vegetables are grown all year round both out in the fields and in large temperature controlled greenhouses. They always aim to keep pesticide and fertilizer use to a minimum to protect the environment whilst ensuring that products are of the highest standard. Most of the products start life as a seed. The seeds are sown and left to grow. The product is then cut and quality checked before being prepared for washing. It is pre-washed and then washed in an anti-bacterial solution. It is then rinsed and dried. The next stage is the mixing by machine before being weighed, bagged and metal detected. Every bag of salad undergoes a stringent series of quality checks before being carefully shipped to you the customer.

  • Shoreline Summary
    HESKETH WITH BECCONSALL PARISH COUNCIL Shoreline Summary Edition Number 23 ~ April 2011 Spring has arrived at last – it doesn’t mean the end of the cold and wet weather but it does mean longer days with a promise of warmer weather and sun shine to come. Hesketh Bank Allotments Update Hesketh Bank Allotments and Leisure Gardeners Association are delighted to announce that the beginning of April saw the newly created Hesketh Bank Allotments site fully open to all plot holders. With the much needed support from our very committed local sponsors the former ‘Poor Marsh’ site has been transformed into the brand new Hesketh Bank community allotment site. With a total of 57 large plots and some smaller raised beds it is set to become one of the largest community allotment sites in West Lancashire and is a great asset for the village. In these times of austerity and with the demand for growing space at an all time high this is a magnificent achievement and is a symbol of the air of optimism within Hesketh Bank. HBALGA have worked tirelessly with the Parish Council for over 2 years to create a space where local residents can grow their own fruit and vegetables and the 17 lucky plot holders who were able to move on site in June last year are starting to see all their hard work paying off. On the plots you can tell that Spring has most certainly ‘Sprung’ and there is a real feeling amongst many that the village is truly beginning to sprout new shoots of growth in all aspects.

  • Shoreline Summary
    HESKETH WITH BECCONSALL PARISH COUNCIL Shoreline Summary Edition Number 20 October 2010 ~ I can’t believe that it is now very nearly October, whatever happened to July and August (and for that matter September), in fact where has summer gone? The old saying ‘the older you get the faster time passes’ is proving to be very true in my case! My memory of summers were long hot sunny days throughout the summer ‘months’, now summer seems to be two weeks in June followed by weeks of warm, wet, humid weather and believe it or not, a water shortage and hose pipe ban! You can normally guarantee rain when it’s Southport Flower Show week and it is to be hoped that the winner of the Parish Councils ‘Win Tickets for the Flower Show’ competition, featured in the last edition of Shoreline Summary, benefitted from a dry day. Seven entrants got the correct answer to the question ‘what is the botanical name of the Pot Marigold?’ - Calendula officinalis; it’s a member of the daisy family Asteraceae and is commonly used in cooking. Congratulations go to Mrs Holly Kirkham of Holwood, Shore Road, Hesketh Bank whose entry was the first drawn from the hat. All the Councillors hope that you enjoyed your visit. THANKS TO ……….. Arden Lea Nurseries Ltd who has again kindly donated the hanging baskets that brightened up the village during the summer and for stocking the large planter on the corner of Moss Lane which has added a splash of colour to that area. Booths and the Eric Wright Group for the care and consideration they have shown to the local community in minimising disruption during the construction of the new store.
