The island's tomato production has almost ground to a halt and it used
to be its lifeblood. Thank goodness for the finance industry and I
never thought I'd hear myself say that! Anthony Le Page who employs 15
workers on his 2ha glasshouses in the Vale is closing down. The stretch
of water between England and the islands is one of the significant
causes. About 50 years ago, the tomato growing employed more than half
the island's population.
