Some of our wildflower areas starting to take shape. Has been a challenge to get them into more formal areas of the grounds and gardens but hopefully now everyone will enjoy the variety for months to come, including pollinators. A positive move forward. MM Seed

We first met andy richards when he was Grounds Manager at Shrewsbury School. We then followed Andy’s pursuit of excellence since his move to Haileybury 6 years ago with a little help from a few of our clients 👏

Terrace set up and ready for today’s game, whilst the robot mower is gradually lowering the Pavilion outfield height by 1mm a day. Nice to have started it when it was too wet and soft for other mowers. Down to 15mm by Monday morning and ready for feeding.

A great way to learn something new, network with others in our sector of the industry and meet some top companies. I always think if you can learn just one new thing or make one new contact then it’s worth the effort to go somewhere. forms.office.com/Pages/Response…
