We are delighted to announce an exciting new relationship with one of the largest conservation charities in Europe: the National Trust. With more than 200 gardens in the National Trust’s care, there is a natural synergy between the Trust’s nature ambitions and our products designed to encourage wildlife in our gardens.
This autumn a new range of plant seeds will be launched, offering customers the chance to bring the spirit of the National Trust into their gardens.
Joseph Cordy, Head of B2B Sales at Thompson & Morgan said:
‘We are delighted to be able to work with the National Trust to offer this new range. The National Trust and Thompson & Morgan share a lot of the same values, history and heritage and we know our customers are going to love the exciting new products we will be creating together’.
Clare Brown, Head of Brand Licensing for the National Trust adds:
‘We’re delighted to offer even more ways for our supporters to help nurture wildlife in their own gardens. These products will complement our existing garden and outdoor offering’.
More announcements about this exciting new range will follow soon.
