We have been working hard to bring the landscapers of the north new and improved humidity tolerant mass planting lines.

The culinary range of edible plants and the grow it yourself garden have given new meaning to the outdoor room. This is also the great opportunity to focus on the new gardeners of the future - our kids. While we are doing this we can teach them to eat well and get outside and be active. The kids grow program is now a reality in our schools. “Every school a garden, every child a gardener, every plant a learning experience.” Is your primary school a part of this?
