Hi All

Sorry there are no onion seeds for sale this year but I hope to have a few young plants for posting.
All stock is looking very healthy on the heads, and I am confident that there will be sufficient to supply orders throughout January.

Please see the products available to order and give me a call with any questions on 07739647166.

Thanks
John

Stock Update March 2021

Categories:

Hi Everyone

Just a quick update to let you all know that my plants direct from cell are now out of stock so I can no longer post anything. I have updated this on each product.

Please make sure if you are placing an order for anything remaining in stock that you are able to collect as they cannot be posted once in pot.

Thanks
John

Stock update September 2020

Categories:

Hi All

I hope everyone has remained safe during these uncertain times. We have not seen many shows this year due to the pandemic but hopefully next year we will have plenty more.

Stock for 2021:
All stock is looking very good and plentiful. I am starting to set leeks away and will have a full range, the same as last year. Orders are now being taken via the website. All prices have been held at the same rate as last year.

PLEASE NOTE: THE ONLY PLANTS THAT CAN BE POSTED ARE FROM CELLS. ONCE POTTED THEY CANNOT BE POSTED, THESE ARE COLLECTION ONLY.

Hopefully this year I will be able to keep you updated with more regular blogs.

Stay safe and well, look forward to hearing from you,
Thanks
John

Please read – stock update as of 20th jan 2020

Categories:

Please do not proceed with any orders for leeks on the website as I have no stock left unfortunately.

The website will allow an order to be placed as I have not yet been able to update the stock list online however any orders placed from this date will not be met and therefore will have to be refunded.

Thanks
John Soulsby
