Breakfast followed by talk and questions.
You are invited to the next meeting of the Herefordshire Conservative Business Forum on Friday the 4th of October 7.15am for 7.30 start, finish by 9am at The Harewood End Inn on the A49 at Harewood End, HR2 8JT, when our speakers will be Mark Green and Sean Mason, founders of Two Farmers Crisps.
Mark and Sean met in a local pub one evening over a pint of beer and a packet of crisps! Both are passionate about the Herefordshire countryside and both had grown award winning potatoes. To honour and celebrate these potatoes they hatched out a plan and the Two Farmers crisps brand was born, now based at Little Pengethley Farm in Peterstow.
Mark is a second-generation farmer and founder of Two Farmers and for years dreamt of making crisps from his very own potatoes. He wanted to produce something that would firmly cement Herefordshire on the foodie map.
Sean a fellow farmer and founder of Two Farmers, Sean’s day job as a potato merchant inspired him to protect the countryside around him. This sparked Sean’s desire to become the first crisp brand in the UK to launch a 100% compostable bag.
Two Farmers grow Lady Claire, Lady Rosetta and Taurus varieties because of their excellent fry colour and high quality. All of their potatoes are graded on the farm which keeps their road miles low.
They grow, harvest, store, cook and pack the crisps. They maintain control throughout each process to ensure the consumer receives the finest end product.
Mark and Sean are committed to giving back to the environment, which is why they use 100% compostable packaging. Their aim is to promote Herefordshire as a county of outstanding agricultural achievement.
Herefordshire CBF welcomes everyone in business or interested in business and of any political persuasion or of none.
