The Queen's Diamond Jubilee Tree Event

 

 

What better way to mark a momentous occasion than to plant a beautiful tree?

Plant a lasting reminder of the Queen's Diamond Jubilee with a garden tree. We are supporting the Woodland Trust's efforts to mark this huge landmark and will have our full range of suitable trees and our famous expert advice to help you choose. Plenty to choose from, plus stakes, ties, composts and a delivery service!

Trees always available but special tree weekend Feb 4-5th 2012.

Call us for more details tel. 01934 832134

This has coincided with the coldest weekend of the winter so feel free to come and chat to us about suitable garden trees at anytime! It is unwise to try to plant trees when the soil is frozen or very wet.

Garden-Releaf Day 13th March

You have heard of Comic Relief and Sport Relief but this is Garden Re-Leaf!

Greenfingers is the main charity that we support and since early 2011 we have raised, with your help, over £600 to plant gardens around children's hospice care facilities.

On Tuesday March 13th we will be having a grand garden raffle with some amazingly useful garden items [thanks suppliers!] to win.

There will also be the opportunity to donate to this very worthwhile charity by 'buying' an item that will be used in building another garden. It may be a notional bag of bark, a sack of cement or a plant and we will have items to suit budgets large and small. Just 'buy' the item and we will hang your contribution on our donating tree.
