In a greenhouse in Worcestershire, Shockingly Fresh grows towers of leafy veg for supermarket shelves
The largest naturally lit vertical farm in Britain has begun harvesting and the creators plan to build 40 more.
It looks nothing like a traditional farm, with bright white towers of leafy green vegetables stacked as high as the eye can see. But Shockingly Fresh’s first giant greenhouse, in Offenham, Worcestershire, is harvesting thousands of bunches of pak choi and lettuce destined for supermarket shelves. The farm is suited to a variety of leafy greens, as well as strawberries and herbs.
