Oakwood Market Garden
We are a small startup market garden in Oakwood, Leeds, bringing locally-grown, produce to families and businesses in north Leeds. Our produce is grown with no artificial fertilisers, pesticides, herbicides or fungicides and we use only peat-free compost.
At present, you can buy our produce from:
Our online store - and collect from our market garden site on a Saturday morning 9 a.m. - 11 a.m.
The Fruit Stall in Chapel Allerton - microgreens, edible flowers and nasturtium leaves
We were hoping to start a CSA veg box scheme this year, but we don’t yet grow the range of produce and in the regular quantities that would be needed to provide a high quality service. As a consequence we’re re-thinking this part of our business model and trialling supplying a local ethical veg box supplier.
Passion4Plants
Passion4Plants is a start-up venture, run by two experienced local growers and business owners – Sarah and Rob. Our mission is to help people connect with growing and eating local fresh food, while promoting wellbeing and environmental sustainability.
We’re establishing a market garden with vegetables, fruit, plants, poultry and bees. Locals ourselves, we want to build a caring and educated community around food and agriculture.
Our Location
The Market Garden at Oakwood is located on a lovely tranquil 2½ acre site just a few minutes drive from Roundhay park in north east Leeds.
The film right was taken when we took the lease. We’ve managed to tame a small corner of the field to date !
There’s plenty of wildlife on and around the site including red kites, golden finches, the occasional deer and of course, foxes. We also have a resident family of sparrow hawks!
What We Grow
Our edible produce is grown from organic seed, cuttings and divisions. We grow a wide variety of root and leafy vegetables , salads, edible flowers, microgreens, chillies, herbs and fruits.
We do not use any non-organic chemicals, pesticides, herbicides or fungicides on our produce or our land.
The produce below is from our 2021 CSA veg box pilot. It’s typical of what we grow, however the pilot scheme showed us that we need to be able to produce sufficient quantity more regularly in order to offer a scheme that we can be proud of, so for now we have paused it and are selling individual produce.
