We are a small family business called Wykeham Gardens and we run a plant centre producing quality peat free, pollinator friendly plants with a move to going organic.
Due to problems outside of our control with our existing site we have taken the very difficult decision to move our plant nursery to a new location....but we need your help to get us there! When we move to The Fold this autumn we will be a part of a rural hub and be able to link in with other like-minded business within this community.
We are passionate about growing plants and we really don't want to close our doors. We have grown thousands of plants that have gone into hundreds of gardens around the Malvern area and have gained a great reputation for the plants we produce. They bring joy to those of you that have bought them and provide a haven for our dwindling bee populations.
To enable us to move to our new location and keep our team on board we need to create a new growing area and sales area.
Currently we are renting all our facilities so to enable us to move we need to buy a commercial polytunnel for growing and a large log cabin to house our shop selling an assortment of garden and wildlife items. Also we need new fencing & gates, Mypex matting & shading and pay for the landscaping of both these areas. The polytunnel is the first thing we need to buy and erect by the end of October!
We have secured some part funding and we have some money of our own to put in but we have a shortfall of £23,000.00 which we need to raise.
If you can possibly help contribute something towards this amount that would be superb and we are offering rewards in the form of plants, pots and tools. For those of you that are not local we will send something from our shop as a token of our thanks.
We look forward to seeing you all at our new location and thank you for your support.
With grateful thanks for all support received.
From Rachael, Andy and the Wykeham Gardens team.
