Award success at the Harrogate Spring Flower Show

Green-tech’s wildflower seed brand, John Chambers, took the recent Harrogate Spring Flower Show by storm. Their largest stand to-date bagged them the prestigious Silver Award for a high standard of display.

The show saw the John Chambers team sell a record number of wildlife habitats over the four-day period. Their stand was crammed with wildflower seed, wildlife and insect habitats. With the current trend on wildlife conservation and creating a biodiverse environment, their wild bird feeders, bug and bee habitats proved to be popular purchases.

John Chambers Wildflower Seed manager Stuart Ball commented: “This was our biggest and best show yet. The sun was shining for us and the crowds came pouring in.  There was just so much interest in creating a wildflower garden and incorporating wildlife habitats into this. It was a genuine delight that the interest in preserving our wildlife species and encouraging and creating biodiversity is stronger than ever.”

Green-tech also donated the timber and compost for the Gold award-winning show garden. The top honours in this years’ Harrogate Spring Flower Show Gardens went to 6 Regiment, Royal Logistics Corps for ‘A Homecoming Prayer’.

Sponsored by BALI and its registered Affiliate members, including Green-tech, ‘A Homecoming Prayer’ was the largest ever show garden at the Harrogate Spring Flower Show and also walked away with Best in Show!

The garden will now be recreated at the 6 Regiments’ base barracks at Dishforth Airfield, which is located just along the road from Green-tech’s head office in North Yorkshire.
