Jane Scotter
Leading biodynamic grower of fruit and vegetables. Supplier to Michelin star restaurant Spring.
Jane Scotter has been farming at Fern Verrow - her certified biodynamic farm at the foothills of the Black Mountains in Herefordshire - since 1996, where she cultivates a wide range of truly seasonal vegetables, fruit, herbs and flowers. Jane believes that vegetables and fruit grown in good soil, at the right time of year and open to the elements have a greatly enhanced character and flavour, and that size and shape are unimportant when compared to taste and true quality. Since 2015 she has had a farm-to-table collaboration with Michelin starred chef Skye Gyngell and her London restaurant, Spring, and also grows flowers for acclaimed London florists, JamJar Flowers.
