About us
Established in 1997, the British Tomato Growers’ Association champions the British tomato and represents commercial growers in the UK.
The British Tomato Growers’ Association is the foremost protected crops grower Association in Great Britain. Steered by a board of Tomato producing company owners and supported by a team of experts - The TGA Technical committee, our work raises awareness of Britain’s tasty tomatoes and showcases the fruit in all its glory.
Leading our associations operations and with over 25 years experience, is our Technical Officer Dr Phil Morley who has extensive and wide ranging knowledge in all aspects of the protected crops sector in the UK.
From spreading the word about health benefits to explaining the sustainability of supply, our aim is simple: encourage more consumers to buy British tomatoes and support our local British growers - the best in the world.
And with the British tomato season running from March to October, there’s plenty of time to indulge in this tasty all-round superfood.
