Misleading Duchy ?







The beneficial owner of the Duchy of Cornwall is The Prince of Wales. It is a substantial landowner. It also produces and markets a variety of food products under the Duchy brand. The goods are all stated to be “organic”.

I was somewhat surprised to find out that Prince Charles allows his brand to be used for produce imported from other countries. He has, on various occasions, spoken out on environmental issues and buying local should be part of that story. Shipping (perhaps even air-freighting) blueberries from Spain is not what I expect under the Duchy brand.
