Excellent quality delivered

1st class service. I was very cautious about purchasing my Potatoes for planting. I had put my choice in the basket,then taken back out on many occasions. I had been let down before having purchased on line with another company. Mr Fothergills have now changed my mind about buying on line.
The Parcel company they use is YODEL and Iwas kept informed of where my package was from start to finish. The packaging was intact and no damages. The contents are of excellent quality. I look forward to ordering more plants from this company

Great Customer Service

I made a mistake. I ordered and paid for an incorrect item for my husband's birthday. The person on the "chat" was really helpful, cancelled the incorrect item, gave me an immediate refund to my card so I was able to select and order the correct item.

No probs seed taties seem great

I would not use the word great but the seed potatoes seem to be in A1 condition. I am starting to plant them.
The "proof of the pudding" will be when the crop is harvested!

My favourite supplier

I've been using Mr F's for years now. They are a trusted supplier that don't keep bombarding me with offers after my initial order but I know are there if I need them. Their range is comprehensive, their website user-friendly with growing guides and hints and tips and once you've put your order in you are kept updated on it's arrival.

Don't buy online - they send out old seeds

Very disappointed with Mr Fothergills. I usually buy seeds from local garden centres, but I thought I'd try a bulk order from Mr Fothergills this year. One third of the seeds I ordered were packed as far back as 2022 and have sow before dates of less than year. The oldest packed seeds (2022) had a small sticky label over the sow before date - careful peeling revealed 2025, but the month was obscured. I strongly recommend NOT ordering online from this company, they'll foist on you all their old stock.

Excellent Service

The only seed company to have at least four of my favourite vegetable seeds that suit the soil conditions on my allotment and reliably produce excellent crops. The Web site was easy to access and the seeds arrived really quickly. Thank you.

Your delivery agent

Your delivery agent, Yokel screwed up and I never got part of my order.
Please delete me from your email and catalogue site, I will go elsewhere in future.

overall good to very good!

Not that easy to order online, a Quick Order form using the catalogue for reference would have been much simpler.
Other than that the seed selection was good, I found what I wanted, you acknowledged my order promptly, and was received within 3 days,
