Castle Gardens flourishes at The Greatest Awards


Receiving recognition for going above and beyond to make a difference within the industry, Sherborne-based Castle Gardens has been presented with a Silver award in The Greatest Plant Retailing Team category at GTN’s Greatest Awards.

Nicky Cartwright (front centre) from Castle Garden, says; “We really pride ourselves on our knowledge, enthusiasm and friendly service, so to have this recognised at Glee is wonderful. Our team works so hard to make gardening more accessible for all, whether it’s widening the variety of plants available, giving gardening talks or holding events, and awards like this will only spur them on!”

The awards ceremony took place on Tuesday 12 September at the Glee Show, the UK’s largest garden and outdoor living trade show, held at the NEC in Birmingham between Monday 11 and Wednesday 13 September.
