I am sure you can appreciate that deliveries can be very different depending on location. Most deliveries are straight...

"As a wildlife friendly organic gardener I could not recommend Strulch more highly. When we open our garden for the Cheshire Wildlife Trust and other charities or in the presentations I give on organic wildlife - supportive gardening Strulch is the product I recommend most. It even beats Comfrey and any organic gardener knows how great that is. If there was anything in my garden I could not...

We are delighted to be working with Brenda and Severine at Bud Garden Centre. This is a small garden centre based in Burnage just off Kingsway described in the press as 'a haven of plants'. They specialise in organic and sustainable gardening.

Faith Ramsey's logo. I began using Strulch in my garden just over a year ago after reading a review about mulches in The English Garden. I am a great fan of the product and think it is one of the best garden products I have come across in many years. I love the fact that it is so multi-purpose.

We were delighted that he used Strulch in the scheme. This year he is teaming up with a young man called Harry Ward aged 15 years who is well on his way to being an expert gardener. We are delighted to sponsor their...

pH chart. Just before Christmas a customer asked if Strulch would make his garden more alkaline. Geoff gave him a comprehensive answer which I thought might be of interest to others. As a soil scientist Geoff is very familiar with soil pH and soil health. Our customer had been working a naturally acidic soil but the pH had been rising causing problems for acid loving plants. In his case the...

I know that many of you are still working on your garden as we continue to send pallets of Strulch out in December. It is time to protect valuable plant roots with a good layer of Strulch and put the garden to bed for the winter. Here in Yorkshire we haven't had a hard frost yet or any snow but it will soon be here. I'm going to buy a Christmas tree today! Best wishes Jackie

Strulch is nearly ten years old. It was lovely to be asked to share our journey last night at the Airedale Enterprise Services' meeting in Keighley, West Yorkshire. Great to meet other entrepreneurs and those thinking of having a go. I love talking about my business!
