Grow Wild

Grow Wild is owned by Lindsay Girvan who was brought up on fantastic home-cooked real food and healthy whole foods. Good natural food, a love of great tasting ingredients, a concern for environmental issues, and a desire to offer a service that she herself would want to use led to the establishment of Grow Wild.

As the business developed, bigger premises were needed, and after a couple of expansion moves, Grow Wild moved out to Bathgate for 12 years. The move to Bonnytoun Farm, home to Lindsay, Ben and the kids, happened in 2016 after Ben completed the new Grow Wild building which now hosts the packing area, loading bay, cold store and office. It's a fantastic wee building and we are loving being there. Particularly over the last 20 years, awareness of organic principles, and the underlying philosophy of producing natural food without harming the planet has blossomed and become much more mainstream. It has been very satisfying to have been part of the movement- Lindsay is delighted that she no longer gets asked 'What is organic and can you send me a fact sheet?', but rather 'which organic certification body are you licensed by?' which shows how things have moved on. The Grow Wild team has worked strongly with local organic growers and suppliers to enable us to offer a fantastic range of produce to our customers. We bring in fresh organic produce several times a week from our own farm, local farms, and from further afield, and our warehouse packing staff quality control, pack, and organise customer orders.
