FairField Crisps - Move over Walkers!

When I think about crisps, the first thing that springs to mind is a packet of Walkers Ready Salted. Not that there is anything wrong with them, everyone is partial to a packet of crisps. But wouldn't it be nice to try something a bit more exciting when it comes to a quick snack?

So, I introduce to you, Fairfields Farm Crisps! The only privately owned crisp producer left in the UK to use all their own local grown potatoes.


The basis of a good quality crisp is a great potato. Laura and Robert from Fairfields farm grow theirs in Colne Valley, Essex. They let mother nature do her bit in providing top quality potatos, no chemicals just the odd words of encouragement.

As far as flavouring goes, Fairfields has gone above and beyond to brighten up the traditional flavours as well as introducing some of their own. For example, they took salt and vinegar and turned it into sea salt and Aspalls Cyder Vinegar made from English apples grown in Suffolk. I must admit that sounds far more appetizing!

The company won an award at the Essex Food & Drink awards last year, and I'm not surprised. They put a lot of hard work into their produce and it comes across!
