Most of our customers took the opportunity to pre-order their plants in September. By mid-October the long order bed was completely full as more and more orders came in. A very busy sales period ensued, from October until Christmas. This resulted in most of our sales stock being sold; leaving us with a very meagre selection of plants coming into 2020.
Another excellent sales season with an ever increasing loyal customer base demonstrates the quality of our plants and serves as a reward for the attention lavished on them by our volunteers during the growing season.
We are now entering that time of year when our general tidying up begins in earnest. Hazel coppicing has already been dealt with and the hedgerows are half way through their annual cut. Some more weeding around the beds, tree pruning and general repairs will hopefully finish this phase by February, when, hopefully, our seeds will start germinating.
