Isle of Wight Tomatoes 🍅

IOW tomatoes have been growing tomatoes in the Arreton Valley, on the glorious Isle of Wight for over 15 years. Combining age-old traditions with modern-day innovation they’re passionate about growing tomatoes that are rich, full flavoured and delicious just as they should be.

Since their first stall at Borough Market, founder Paul has been dedicated to growing the UK’s tastiest tomatoes.

They grow over 40 varieties every year, each specially selected for their unique flavour. Their growing strategy is to fully develop the fruit on the plants so they reach optimum ripeness, flavour and harvest and deliver it to Smith & Brock within 24 hours, to ensure freshness.

The team hold a taste panel that meet each week during the summer to taste profile all of the new varieties, helping to create valuable data that they use to evaluate future cropping plans.

IOW tomatoes carry out rainwater harvesting to ensure crops are mainly irrigated using rain water. Any run off is captured, pasteurised and fed back to the reservoir to ensure no water goes to waste. As a B Corp certified business, they are also working to become a zero-waste business, incorporating sustainable energy, recyclable packaging and zero produce to landfill as part of their mission.
