About Us - A Potted History

Jim Keeling established Whichford Pottery in 1976 with two apprentices and now heads a team of 30 local people, including his eldest son Adam, designing and making a wide range of English flowerpots using traditional hand-thrown and hand-pressed methods for discerning gardeners worldwide. We are a family business, passionate about keeping our skills alive, using ethically sourced materials, providing personal customer service and supporting local businesses wherever possible.

This is a brief pictorial archive of how the pottery has developed over the years.
