Fauvic Nurseries Ltd

Fauvic Nurseries has been in the Payn family for four generations. The business began 90 years ago when Stanley’s great grandfather began growing outdoor tomatoes in the south-east corner of the Island.

Fauvic Nurseries is now one of the largest regional suppliers of tomatoes for Sainsbury’s supermarkets in the United Kingdom and is one of their few suppliers allowed to mark the country of origin on its packaging.

Today the nursery covers almost 13 acres and grows a wide variety of seasonal local produce. As well as producing 2.8 million trusses of tomatoes every year, the farm also produces home-grown salad leaves, herbs, Jersey Royal potatoes, peppers, melons, cucumbers, strawberries and beans.

In 2003, Fauvic Nurseries launched its own farm shop, Holme-Grown, selling farm fresh produce, home made cakes and preserves and freshly baked bread. They will also make up hampers to your requirements. In addition, the farm shop has a wide range of houseplants, shrubs and bedding plants as well as a tearoom with a wide range of local produce on the menu
