Leaf

Over the past 20 years the diversity of leaf vegetables available to growers has increased dramatically. Our breeders have kept pace with this explosion, our lettuce varieties are now grown throughout the world and we were one of the first companies to breed specifically for baby leaf lettuce. Tozer is generally considered to be at the forefront of babyleaf breeding, bringing new varieties and types to the marketplace every year. We are also now working to improve a range of herb varieties for growers.
