Description: F.J. Jackson & Son Ltd established 1945. Frederick and Kathleen moved to East Devon in March 1945, established a nursery and began producing the tomatoes for which they became famous in the area! Over thirty shops sold their produce, ten in Honiton high street alone, only Hooks still remaining. In 1993 trading conditions had made food uneconomic to produce and the business began growing and trading in annual plant plugs (bedding plants) to you! Now we sell these plants to commercial growers, gardening clubs, charities and amateurs who can satisfy our terms of trading throughout the south west. Our distinctive vans can be seen from Penzance to Bournemouth to Gloucester most weeks of the year. When we have finished with this range of plants we produce 300,000 pot plants, thousands of hanging baskets and offer a bespoke planter service to golf clubs and commercial premises throughout East Devon.
