Hodmedod

Hodmedod works directly with British farmers to source and supply a range of quality ingredients and foods. We’re particularly interested in searching out and developing the production of less well-known foods, like our British-grown Quinoa, Fava Beans and "Black Badger" Carlin Peas. By supporting farmers as they change the way they work, and by offering the whole foods they grow to as many people as possible, we believe we can help to create a diverse and agroecological food system built on networks of transparent relationships. We sell a growing range of British pulses and grains in quantities from 500g to tonnes. As well as selling whole grains, pulses and other seeds we also offer flours, canned pulses, flakes, puffs and roasted snacks. We supply individual retail and catering outlets, wholesaler, distributors, manufacturers and bulk buyers. Please get in touch to find out more. Nick Saltmarsh, Josiah Meldrum and William Hudson founded Hodmedod in 2012 in order to bring fava beans and other British crops to a wider UK market. Since then we've won a hat full of Great Taste stars, the BBC Food and Farming Award for Best Producer, featured in dozens of recipe books, appeared on menus in the world's best restaurants, at festivals and in community cafe's. We’re stocked in the best delis, bakeries, farm shops and wholefood shops. We’ve spoken at hundreds of festivals, conferences and workshops (about everything from alternative grain economies through lentil agronomy to food and social justice). We've popped up on TV with the likes of James Martin and Jamie Oliver, featured in the Times, Guardian, FT, Mirror, Metro, Telegraph (everywhere...) recorded far too many podcasts and published our own journal 'Sheaf'. We’ve organised a dal festival. We’ve been a part of numerous research projects and mentored other, similar, start-ups… It’s been a whirl! Where next?
