Raspberry
Clock House Farm's adoption of high-tech poly greenhouses, is testament to their dedication to innovative and eco-friendly growing techniques. Oli Pascall, the visionary managing director of Clock House Farm, attests, "Our fruit is grown in high tech poly greenhouses rather than standard tunnels. We use heat extracted from the River Medway, to achieve a consistent temperature of up to 50 degrees in the greenhouses, representing an innovative and genuinely renewable source of energy." This forward-thinking approach ensures optimal growth of the flagship variety grown at the farm Driscoll’s Maravilla, from April to November, setting new standards in the industry.
