About Greenwood Plants

Greenwood Plants is a landscape supply nursery which specialises in the new build property, commercial, and infrastructure sectors. With over 100 acres of production capacity, it produces around six million plants a year across its six nursery sites in the UK, and employees more than 120 people. Greenwood aims to become the best in the horticultural industry through the consistent delivery of an effortless client experience. It is an award-winning sustainability leader, working towards becoming net zero, and committed to becoming fully peat-free by the end of 2023. With a loyal and growing client base, Greenwood prides itself on its fast and flexible national deliveries, its client-first approach, and its international supply chain. Greenwood differentiates itself by offering its G Club loyalty programme, which recognises and rewards clients with bonus credits and extra benefits. The grower is focussed on pioneering sustainability initiatives and lean working practices that use resources efficiently, reduce waste, improve local communities, and encourage biodiversity. It’s sustainability strategy shapes its future development, with three key elements: i. Growing Greener – carbon neutral, peat-free, fewer chemicals and single-use plastics, water self-sufficient, renewable energy. ii. G Cycle – collection, repair and reuse of crates, pallets, and pots. iii. Greenwood Community – plant donations to local charities, schools, and organisations, to create green spaces, enhance biodiversity, support education and improve wellbeing. Over the past year Greenwood has invested in many sustainability practices including electric forklifts and company vehicles; alternatives to single-use plastics; biological pest control; increased water storage capacity; state-of-the-art sprinklers; a pot washing machine and beehives to support biodiversity. Greenwood adheres to the highest standards of biosecurity and plant health management, to protect the environment and manage the risk of pests and diseases. The company is self-assessing for Plant Healthy and hopes to be accredited by end of 2023.
