Spring
The first signs of spring are signalled by the sound of birdsong, buds on trees and early spring flowers. It's time to get busy in the garden.
Peat Free Compost
We do a happy dance every time someone chooses to use peat free compost. Extracting peat is bad for the environment and having a detrimental effect on the wildlife. For that reason, at Kiln Farm Nursery, we have chosen to reduce the recommended retail price of peat free compost single bags so that it matches multi-purpose compost. We use Evergreen for most of our compost supply and all their varieties are peat reduced. We also have an organic garden compost which is ideal for digging into the soil. They are an Irish company so their compost is from the UK. They have a strong commitment to stopping peat being extracted from their peat bogs.
We also stock Dalefoot Compost which is made using sheeps wool here in the UK.
Thank you for being part of the consumer revolution to shop more ethically.
If you want to know more about the issues here is a link to a blog Ruth has written.
Spring is in the air
We are always stocking new items for the garden and it would be hard to list them all but we’d love to welcome you to wander around our nursery to see what we have.
Time to plant your beautiful summer flowering bulbs
We have a romantic and vibrant selection of these in the shop. You can choose from dahlias, iris, nerines, and gladiolis and many others. It will be lovely to see them in full flower in the summer. Won’t it be lovely to feel the sunshine and enjoy the colour in the garden?
Sustainable Products
This year we are introducing lots of sustainable products at the nursery.
We have ‘wool pots’, wool compost and dog leads that are made from recycled fishing nets to combat plastic in the ocean. Here is one of our labs sporting her new lead from Tangle Mission
We also have a range of products and treats with our four legged friends in mind. So do come and take a look.
Gift Vouchers and Cards
We sell and accept national garden gift cards which can be used in other garden centres all over the country or you can purchase one of our own Kiln Farm Nursery gift vouchers.
If you have the old style gift vouchers we are still able to accept them (as long as they are in date!)
