Ever wonder where the fabulous fruit and veg found in your favourite London restaurants come from? Wonder no more! Growing Underground co-founder, Steven finds out for you on one of his regular drop offs of our delicious microgreens to New Covent Garden Wholesale Market, at a time when most of us are safety tucked up in bed ?…
2am and Steven meets a sight that would wake anyone up with a slap in the face, this luscious bed of bright red, green, yellow, orange and black tomatoes!
You’ll find the weird and wonderful at New Covent Garden Market like these fab morel mushrooms!

This is the point Steve claimed near death experience…
I cannot capture the frenetic nature of the market in pictures…I have nearly been run over three times by forklift trucks rushing everywhere
More bright and juicy tomatoes
..more tomatoes…
4am and Steve’s obsession with tomatoes starts to unravel…
Lorries laden with fresh fruit and veg start their engines on route to your favourite restaurants
That 5am sky!
Another successful night at New Covent Garden Market delivering Growing Underground microgreens and mingling with some awesome fruit and veg! However Steve now feels about as alive as this bottle of milk, but there’s no use crying as he’ll be back at the market again tonight…
