OGPod Episode 3: Calixta Killander and Flourish Produce

We have a belter of a conversation with Calixta Killander of Flourish Produce in Cambridgeshire. Calixta spent a number of years in the US, studying and growing before coming back to the UK to establish Flourish where they grow in the region of 35 acres of vegetables, all sold direct. And boy, has she gone far in a relatively short space of time. We talk about crop diversity, green manures, resting the land, working with restaurants, the importance and challenges of scaling the business, continual investment and improvements, and differences between growing in the US and the UK. It’s inspiring stuff, so let’s get to it.To learn more about Flourish Produce head to their website: https://www.flourishproduce.co.uk/This podcast is brought to you by the Organic Growers Alliance, the UK's only grower-led organisation providing technical and practical advice and support on organic growing.
