We did it again! We won another award for our paper packaging. This time, we won the silver 𝑺𝒖𝒔𝒕𝒂𝒊𝒏𝒂𝒃𝒍𝒆 𝑭𝒐𝒐𝒅 𝑨𝒘𝒂𝒓𝒅 in the category of Sustainable Packaging. The Sustainable Food Awards recognize and celebrate excellence in sustainability within the food industry. Winning this award feels incredibly rewarding, especially considering the immense effort our teams have put into bringing this packaging innovation to life as developing innovative packaging for perishable products like berries is no easy task. It is the perseverance, dedication, and passion of our teams that made this work. With 94% less plastic, this packaging is an excellent start to reducing plastic waste. However, this journey will continue, as true impact is only achieved if you keep exploring and pushing the boundaries. Big shoutout to everyone who supported us in making this innovation happen! #Sustainablepackaging #Finestberries #Freshberries #teamwork #awardwinningberries #growbettergrowtogether #Sfawards

What better way to educate children about how fruit is grown than to bring them to the fields? Showing that berries actually grow on plants, explaining how each berry is handpicked, and teaching them about all the efforts it takes to bring fruit from the plant to the plate. Sharing many stories of how our growers and our teams are continuously exploring ways to grow the fruit in the most sustainable way, so the plants use less water and the berries are as delicious as they can get. A big thanks to the growers, the Sustainability Research Centre, and our Portuguese teams for working together in our joint effort to educate future generations. #GrowbetterGrowtogether #howberriesgrow #SustainabilityResearchCentre #teamwork

Everyone loves berries, especially when they are bred for sweetness and packed in paper. So it's an absolute honour to have the Prime Minister of the UK, Rishi Sunak, taste some of our sweetest Driscoll's varieties 🍓 Yesterday, Berry Gardens Growers Ltd proudly presented the Driscoll’s berries to the Prime Minister of the UK, Rishi Sunak, at the Farm to Fork Garden event at 10 Downing Street. The Prime Minister was truly impressed by the taste and quality of our berries. It's great to see how our collective effort in growing the most flavorful fruit is being appreciated. Thanks, Berry Gardens Growers Ltd, for presenting our berries with pride!🍓 #Berries #PrimeMinisterVisit #FarmToTable #BerryLovers #Onlythefinest #Britishberries #paperpack #Driscolls #freshberries
Berry Garden Growers were delighted to be invited to 10 Downing Street today where we got to meet the Prime Minister. He loved the Driscoll's Victoria blackberries! We explained to Rishi the importance of Producer Organisations and how we foster new start ups and innovation. We introduced him to Glen Slade from BigSis who are working with our growers. The Government announced today a new £80m 'Horticulture Resilience & Growth' programme which recognises the Producer Organisation model. Good news!!
