Vital Veg are based at North Tillydaff farm near Echt overlooking the beautiful vale of Alford. We are licensed by the Soil Association to grow and distribute organic fruit and vegetables.

As well as growing and distributing vegetables we provide advice to organic gardeners about plot design, choice of vegetables to grow, rotations, composting, and how to avoid common problems, pests and diseases.

We work closely with a local garden designer (Alison Shearer Garden Design) who draws up our plans.

We also work with Universities to take advantage of the latest research into organic growing.

If you live within a 25 mile radius of Westhill (near Aberdeen) we can come and visit your plot. If you are further away, we work from a questionnaire.
