Our Shop at The Abbey School

Buy from our shop and be assured ‘We will only sell products that we feel secure that they are made in an environmentally sound way without exploitation.’

Our aim is to grow and source the ‘best’ plants and growing related products for you to buy. By ‘best’ we mean value, the value in the sense it either grows successfully in the UK or it ‘works’ as a product be it a peat free compost, specialist seed, coppice stake or environmentally balanced pest/disease control method. Many people are now buying with a strong ethic of growing sustainably, it is something we also firmly believe in, peat free and bee friendly, only promoting plants that have a proven resistance to disease…
