Ardkeen Quality Food Store inspecting the new season tomatoes.

The first of the season local tomatoes have arrived in store – a sure sign that summer is on its way! Grantstown Nurseries have been suppliers of tomatoes and other fruits and vegetables to Ardkeen Quality Food Store for 35 years. The Currid family’s continuous focus on quality and innovation means they have expanded their greenhouses in the last 12 months and are experimenting with new exciting new varieties, Flavorita being the newest addition for 2012.

The ultimate in Low Food Miles – These locally grown tomatoes are ripened naturally on the vine, picked & on the shelves at Ardkeen in a matter of hours. The exceptionally short time from vine to shelf ensures that the fruits are at their best and still packed full of goodness, flavour and freshness.
Ardkeen Quality Food Stores’ longstanding partnership with Grantstown Nurseries eptimomises their commitment to all that is good about Irish Food, sourcing the best quality produce from local suppliers, in season.
