The Young People in Horticulture Association are excited to announce their second set of supporters for the 2023-2024 sponsorship term.

Supporters make up a second tier to YPHA’s sponsorship structure, working in unison with five ‘Key Partners’ to advocate for YPHA’s mission to engage, educate and empower horticulture’s younger contingent. With the number of available slots for supporters increasing from five to 10 for the 2023-2024 term, an ‘expressions of interest’ process was undertaken, with the final candidates selected by the YPHA committee on a blind ballot basis from a longer list.

Previously announced as supporters were BALI, MorePeople, Evergreen Garden Care, the Garden Media Guild and Majestic Trees. 

Now joining the ranks are Joseph Rochford Gardens, who produce hardy ornamental nursery stock for landscape and garden professionals.

Also newly appointed are Southern Trident – they specialise in high quality, peat-free and  coir based growing medium and doormats, manufacturing both in the UK and direct from source to UK/EU market.

The final new recruit for the 2023/24 term are English Heritage. - they are a charity that manages over 400 historic monuments, buildings and places. These include prehistoric sites, medieval castles, Roman forts, and country houses.

Fargro have renewed for a second term, having been one of YPHA’s first ever pledges of support. Fargro are a professional team providing high quality growing media, materials and equipment, advice on increasing yield, and more.

Also renewing for a second term are Output Digital, who operate cloud-based Greenhouse Management Software business ‘GrowFlo’, managing all aspects of your nursery operation from the cloud, on scalable Greenhouse Management Software.

YPHA Committee Member Sarah Want said: “We are overwhelmed, and incredibly grateful for all the support we have received from the industry. It’s fantastic seeing a wide range of businesses keen to help us in our mission, and our 10 supporters show how diverse and exciting the horticulture industry is.”
