Five Star Polytunnel

We have had a very busy spring at Five Star Polytunnels and we are seeing an increasing number of people embarking on growing their own produce.  A Five Star Polytunnel is just what is needed to offer a stable, warmer environment for growing fruit and vegetables. We seem to be facing one thing after another which is threatening the cost and availability of supermarket produce and finally it seems that the trend might be changing. It’s time we appreciated seasonal fruit and vegetables and stopped expecting tomatoes all year round and strawberries at Christmas! Understandably not everyone has the space to ‘grow their own’ but every bag of salad and cucumber bought from a local stall or market is one less shipped into the country, sprayed with chemicals to keep them ‘fresh’ and grown as cheap as possible, paying poor wages to the workforce. At Five Star Polytunnels we have a small roadside shop and 3 tunnels producing as much food as we can manage. Our polytunnels make a fine showroom and we welcome anyone who wants to come and have a look and be inspired to buy a tunnel and give it a go. There is so much talk about how ‘good’ it is for us, not just through what we eat, but also the feeling of achievement and pleasure when you pick your own crop, the fresh air and some physical work. There are many sizes of Five Star Polytunnel available, even if you only have a small space and a small amount of time….give it a go!!
