"Fairfield's compost really is "black gold". It's the only stuff that I feel confident will condition my soil. I've asked for Fairfield's compost for both my Christmas and birthday presents. My family think I'm mad".


John Grimshaw, Chairman of Whitehill Allotments, Stockport (please note that the man in the photo is NOT John Grimshaw)
