Organic Soups & Salads

The Staff of Knobby Carrot Co.

 

The Story

The wonderfully titled "Knobbly Carrot Company" was started by farmer's son Julian Evans, his wife Debbie and family friend Stephanie Bond at Lampterer in West Wales.

As Julian says "All our organic vegetables are bought locally as there is an abundance of pioneering organic farmers in the area. We are keen to support these wherever possible." soup makingThe success of the business has been very encouraging, according to Stephanie "We have a home-made salad and soup bar in the delicatessen part of our premises which has been a roaring success.

Due to the popularity and fame of this venture we were invited to exhibit and sell our products in the Food Hall at the Royal Welsh Agricultural Show. The products were received with great excitement and we could hardly keep up with the demand; constantly being asked, “where can we buy these from?” People from all over the country and different backgrounds all loved them. We realised then that there was a genuine need in the market place for our products.
Stephanie soup making
Using the finest ingredients, Chef Stephanie Bond has created a comprehensive range of ready-to-eat organic salads and soups. She intends to add new varieties in the near future.

Julian sums up their philosophy : "Here at the Knobbly Food Company we believe in health amd happiness. That is why all of our delicious soups and salads contain a very special ingredient, available to all but rarely used — care. They are made by hand in small batches with the utmost attention to every detail. We trust our vital ingredient will help to keep our customers happy and contented".We at Graig Farm agree with Julian, and hope you too will enjoy his soups and salads.
