Forest Garden's new range to benefit charity
 |
Forest Garden will be donating 2.5% from the sale of every product in its new Accessible Gardening range to the disability charity Thrive.
The company made the announcement on its stand as it unveiled the range on the first day of the show.
The Accessible Gardening range includes a wide range of raised beds and planters that will make gardening even easier, thanks to their suitability for those that need to sit, kneel, stand or use a wheelchair to garden.
The compact nature of some designs also makes the range the perfect option where space is at a premium, making it easy for even more people to start growing their own plants and vegetables at home.
Forest Garden and Thrive will be working closely together to promote the range as well as helping to boost the work of Thrive.
Thrive is a charity that helps people living with a disability or mental ill health, transforming their lives through gardening and horticultural therapy.
"This range has been created to promote gardening for less-able gardeners, from wheelchair users to those who have trouble bending, or simply need to sit down when working in the garden," said head of marketing Vicky Nuttall.
"We understand that gardening shouldn't be a chore but something to be enjoyed, and we hope that this new range alleviates some of the stress that can be experienced when accessibility becomes a problem."
