Now more than ever, people are waking up to how gardening and spending time in nature are important for everyday happiness and wellbeing. Todayโ€™s horticultural industry faces a seismic shift, with more demand for gardening products, but an increasing interest in sustainable practices. Garden care companies have a responsibility to introduce customers, old and new, to a better way forward.

Gardening can feel daunting for many. Often perceived as having a steep learning curve, with various technicalities to learn and an overwhelming choice of product, it can be off-putting if youโ€™re a budding new gardener looking to plant your first seeds.

As Europeโ€™s and Australasiaโ€™s leading garden care company, Evergreen Garden Care is set on giving people confidence that theyโ€™ll succeed in their gardening. Through its market-leading brands such as Miracle-Gro, which is designed with high efficacy in mind, easy-to-follow instructions and guidance, the company strives to make gardening easy and joyous.

Behind the scenes, Evergreenโ€™s products are shaped by extensive year-round trialling at its research and development centres in the UK and France. The result is a comprehensive product range with reliable resultโ€™s and which is straightforward to use. This commitment is reinforced by Evergreenโ€˜s team of horticultural experts, available to support gardeners all year round, ensuring gardening feels accessible and open to all.

Alongside easy-to-use products, Evergreen acknowledges its responsibility to offer customers growing mediums that are in harmony with the natural world. Gardening is inherently tied to nature, and protecting it is at the forefront of our goals. Thanks to its reliable growing capabilities, for decades gardening companies have used peat in their compost. However, natural peat bogs are paramount for storing large amounts of CO2 within the ground, not to mention offering biodiversity and a home for various wildlife species.

This is why Evergreenโ€™s Miracle-Gro and Levington compost ranges are completely peat-free, offering consumers alternative ways to grow their gardens while helping to protect the environment. Devoted to a transition away from peat in an environmentally responsible and technically robust way, Evergreen has invested over ยฃ7 million on peat-free manufacturing capabilities in the UK, leading the way on high-quality compost designed for ease-of-use, and with sustainability in mind.

At the heart of everything Evergreen aims to achieve is the simple mission of helping gardeners feel proud of the gardens they create, while leading the sector in a more sustainable approach to this age-old practice. By investing in the ease-of-use and sustainability of its products, Evergreen is excited to be at the heart of helping gardeners grow greener, better spaces for happier, healthier lives.
