Is Good

Produced with sustainably grown ingredients using traditional farming methods. Minimizing environmental footprint through local sourcing and less packaging.

Sometimes the simplest ideas can have a profound effect. Duchy Originals was founded in 1990 by HRH The Prince of Wales. Their story goes back a little further, however – back to the early 1980s when The Prince moved to the Highgrove estate in Gloucestershire, and began the process of converting the Duchy Home Farm, which is part of the estate, to an entirely organic agricultural system.

Through Duchy Originals, The Prince believed he could create a "virtuous circle" - produce high quality food of the highest quality, work in harmony with the environment and nature, use the best ingredients and add value through expert production. In addition to this, with all the profits going to The Prince’s Charities Foundation, the brand would go on to support an increasing number of worthwhile projects.

In 1986, The Prince began the process of converting parts of Home Farm to organic production and, gradually, the whole farm converted to organic, achieving full organic status in 1996. Duchy Originals has grown steadily since then. A key moment came in 1999, however, when they got confirmation that times were changing and their message was getting through. In that year, they made their first profit. Since then, thanks to the support of their customers, they’ve made – and given to The Prince’s Charities Foundation over £6 million.

Duchy Originals is now produced in partnership wtih Waitrose and our Good Food Charter sets the standards you can expect of us. Put simply, we are committed to making the very best sustainable food for you and your family and our Good Food Charter is our blueprint for making sure it does.
