Online Retail

There is currently an outdoor furniture sale on at the online garden furniture retailer Gardencentreshopping. They are offering some great value garden benches, as well as a range of rattan sets, and Winawood weatherproof benches (more information on Winawood below).

News

“A Northumberland organisation that helps blind and partially-sighted people enjoy the benefits of gardening and social activities recently received a useful grant.”

This is such a fantastic cause, and I am so glad that they have managed to get extra funding for this terrific gardening group.

Events

The Gardeners World live event has been announced for 2016, and we for one are very glad. The event is one of the highlights of the gardening calendar, with showers from across the country and further afield, coming together to enjoy the wonders of the outdoor hobby we all know and love. It will be held at the NEC Birmingham from the 16th to the 19th of June 2016.
