Purple Sprouting Broccoli (PSB)
Riverford Specification
Health & Safety
PSB is harvested using knives, which are kept sharp for ease and efficiency of harvesting. Due to this, care must be taken when using them. Please remember to not put your knife in your caddies or crates as this can injure you or someone else further down the line.
Baddaford is a steep farm that can get super muddy and slippery if it’s been raining. Appropriate footwear should be worn to help avoid slips, falls, or turned ankles.
Crates can get heavy, especially when it has been raining. Don’t lift more weight than you feel comfortable and ask for help if something feels too heavy. Use good lifting practices as outlined here:
