Meet the Team

Ben - Operations Manager

Favourite Chilli - Pimientos de Padron – because who doesn’t love tapas! So easy to fry up with oil and salt for an amazing snack.

Jenny - Director

Favourite Chilli - has to be the chilly chilli – cute name, pretty little plant, so colourful and can chuck it on absolutely anything and everything!

Corrina - Fulfilment Manager

Favourite Chilli - My favourite is probably Cumari or White Habanero – the tiny fruits just look like little fairy lights twinkling on the branches, so pretty!

Nick - Fulfilment Operative

Favourite Chilli - Mini Meanie – it’s a variety unique to SDCF and looks so pretty on the plant where the fruits hang in a huge yellow canopy

Phil - Horticultural Manager

Favourite Chilli - Carolina Reaper – the hottest chilli in the world, need I say more!

Izzi - Trainee Horticulturist

Favourite Chilli - I’d say any chocolate chilli variety – they’re a real challenge to germinate and grow but its so satisfying when they do, and they can be excellent croppers if you treat them with love & care
