The Lizard Leaf Company
|
|
We are a small scale independent organic mixed market garden based at Gear Farm, St Martin on the Lizard Peninsula in West Cornwall and we produce a wide range of herbs, salad leaves and vegetables for local health food stores, farm shops, gastropubs, hotels, restaurants, box schemes and holiday accommodation.
All our produce is grown without the use of insecticides, fungicides and chemical fertilizer and our entire process of production is accredited by the Biodynamic Agricultural Association of Great Britain.
The great flavour of our produce comes from growing varieties which taste the best rather than perform well in terms of uniformity, yield or shelf life and we grow them in a well maintained healthy soil enriched with lots of natural fertility, liquid seaweed extracts and mineral rich comfrey juice.

Chyan Community Field
|
|
A two acre organic forest garden. The field is leased to Swamp Circus Trust, a registered charity to develop this green space for use by the local community and partners. The field has a central walled garden and radiating sections worked by the project's partners and volunteers.
Our aim is to involve local environmentalists, community groups, farmers and gardeners, old and young, to develop their own permaculture projects and enjoy the land.
