British Asparagus Conference & Gala Dinner

The Asparagus Growers Association is delighted to announce the return of the Biennial British Asparagus Conference taking place on Wednesday 15 July 2026 at Norchard Farm, Crossway Green, Stourport-on-Severn DY13 9SN, from 8am to 4pm.

This flagship event will bring together growers, agronomists, researchers, and key industry stakeholders to explore the latest developments, challenges, and innovations shaping the UK asparagus sector. Alongside the conference sessions, a trade exhibition will provide excellent opportunities for networking and collaboration across the industry. A networking lunch will further encourage discussions among growers, agronomists, machinery suppliers, and other associated industries.

Following lunch, delegates will have the opportunity to take part in a farm tour, featuring:

• Module trials and demonstrations of modules versus crowns
• Herbicide demonstration plots
• Mature asparagus crops
• 3-metre bed width systems
• Machinery demonstrations

For businesses looking to enhance their visibility within the asparagus industry, sponsorship packages are available offering a valuable platform to showcase products and services. Trade stand and outdoor machinery display spaces are also available, each including two complimentary delegate tickets. For further details on sponsorship and exhibiting, please contact Pauline Sutton at [email protected].

In addition, we are pleased to invite delegates to a Drinks Reception and Conference Dinner on the evening of Tuesday 14 July at The Hadley Bowling Green, Hadley Heath:
