History

Smith & Munson Ltd was founded in 1949, although we have been growing on our site in South Lincolnshire since George Smith bought the land in the early 1900’s. We began growing cereals, vegetables, flowers; you name it, we grew it. In the mid 1980’s we made the decision to consolidate growing just flowers and moved most flower production under glass.

Our five generations started with George Smith, whose daughter Hilda married Jack Munson and formed Smith & Munson Ltd. Jack Munson was a champion grower and was famed for his Begonias. With a big increase in the demand for cut flowers Neville Munson mixed the farming with bulb growing. Then when Stephen Munson returned from college he could see flowers were the way forward for the business and has not looked back since. The latest generation is Edward Munson, he has inherited his predecessor’s love of growing.
