Flax is one of our oldest crops grown in the British Isles since the bronze age,
its stems produce one of the strongest and most versatile plant fibres. The
nutritional value of its seeds, the qualities of its oils extracted from them
have multiple uses both around the home and in industry. Flax is a crop which
transcends time, nations and cultures and is set for a renaissance as the world
seeks to adjust our creative and industrial endeavours rediscovering the
benefits of natural home grown fibres, oils and foods.
