Snippets
We have a new style newsletter that we will be publishing more often. It’s an A5 size leaflet that will get you up to date with all our news. Ask to go on our mailing list – we have one for emails and one for traditional posting.

We’ve won an award!
The Coffee Shop at the Plant Plot came 2nd in the Taste of Staffordshire’s Visitor Attraction category. We are really pleased – all credit to Jackie and the team in the kitchen who work very hard to create delicious home-made food using as many locally sourced, fresh ingredients as possible. Our specials board changes regularly and we have many lovely comments from our customers – come and see for yourself!

Model Allotment News
We are busy developing our land at the back of the nursery into a model allotment. Take a look down there – we have an orchard, chickens, potting sheds, greenhouse and even a golf putting area! The allotment is designed to show in a practical way, how easy it is to ‘grow your own’ and to inspire our customers with the many ways in which you can cultivate a piece of land into something productive and attractive. You are very welcome to take a look and walk round.

In the news
You’ll see our regular news in the Lichfield Mercury every week and monthly in Staffordshire Life. Our Lichfield Mercury column details many of the local gardening societies’ information together with useful seasonal information on gardening. It’s well worth a regular read.
