ONE OF the UK’s leading commercial nurseries is inviting forestry customers to visit its transplants division as part of Confor National Nursery Open Day.
Wyevale Nurseries Transplants Division in Ledbury is opening its doors on Tuesday, September 8 from 9am until 3pm. Customers who attend will be taken on tours around the nursery and light refreshments will also be served.
Ray Jenkins, Director at Wyevale Nurseries Transplants Division, said: “We are part of the Confor Nursery Producers’ Group and as a member we are very pleased to be involved in the first Confor Nursery Producers’ Group – National Nursery Open Day.
“Seven other nurseries, who are also members, will be hosting an open day too. It’s a chance for customers to visit a working nursery and view planting stock. It is also a chance for people to form new contacts. Attendees will also be able to find out about our group’s transparency and how it can benefit them.
“If you would like to attend a tour of our transplants division we would be grateful if you could contact us on 01531 650 482 to confirm numbers attending and your estimated time of arrival.”
