Ro-Gro

Ro-Gro is the daughter company of Machere.

Quite literally too - the company was named after our little girl, Rosie. Whilst Machere embodies a larger body of farming related work and consultancy, Ro-Gro is all about growing and providing quality produce to our local area.

Farming is the family business: Machere is the name of our family’s first-generation farm in Zimbabwe. After settling down in the UK, faced with wet weather and rising land rates, it was obvious that we would have to adapt and adopt new technologies in order to continue our family farming tradition of 110 years.

We’re now an indoor operation based in Kent, so we may not have mud on our boots, but our ethos is the same: we believe strong communities are built around fresh and local food.
