Dobbies Swindon will be offering members of the public the chance to attend a free sustainable 'Grow How' session.

Staff at Dobbies Swindon are asking people if they are ready to reap the fruits of their labour.

Dobbies will be hosting a free 'Grow How' session in its Swindon store with a live demonstration on 'How to grow your own fruit bowl.' 

Ideal for both beginners and seasoned gardeners, Dobbies' Grow How interactive workshop will take place in Swindon on Saturday, 3 September at 10:30am.

Gardening experts from Dobbies will spend time demonstrating how customers can grow their own blackberries, raspberries, blueberries, and apples, as well as showcasing the various gardening tools required.

The experts will also provide tips and tricks on how to best care for fruit trees, as well as chart the journey from seedling to fruit and answer any questions customers may have. 

Ever committed to sustainability, this Dobbies’ workshop aims to emphasise the benefits of using peat-free compost, organic feeds and safer pest control products.

Sarah Murray, Dobbies’ Partnership and Events Manager, said: “At Dobbies we are committed to doing our part to care for the planet and ensure a better tomorrow.

"We’re encouraging customers to attend this free workshop to not only plant and harvest delicious fruit, but also to pass the knowledge on to friends and family so they can also grow their own.”
