Plot to Plate: New developments in the Walled Garden at Harewood

Work is underway on the new vegetable beds in the Walled Garden at Harewood. The new kitchen garden in the Walled Garden at Harewood will revive the tradition of growing food on site to support the House and Estate.

As part of our continuing support of local growers, reducing food miles and home-grown produce these new vegetable beds will supply both the Courtyard Shop and Café – so you’ll be seeing the food grown here on the menu too! Plot to plate is all about sustainability and responsibility, something Harewood feels strongly about.

Next time you visit, take a stroll around the lakeside to the Walled Garden and see how work is progressing! Muck-spreading is the first job with sowing taking place late March to early June - parsnips, beetroot, carrots, potatoes, cabbages; many of which are new varieties for 2010.
