Tim Matcham Garden Design

Occassionally something happens that gets you really excited – something completely out of the blue! That something for me was having the opportunity to get involved with the Garden Network - described by Horticulture Week as “…a networking website that looks set to become the ‘Facebook’ of the Horticulture world.”

The site www.garden-network.co.uk has grown quickly and is now approaching a membership of 8,000 in little over a year. It brings together everyone who has a passion for gardening from the homeowner keen to expand their knowledge and ask questions, to lecturers at some of the countries leading horticultural colleges. Every category is catered for and they can exchange views, tips and ideas on any aspect of gardening.

As the new owner, I am keen to explore avenues of value for the membership. Feedback from our members is key to its continued success. The formula seems popular and even with minimal publicity we are growing at an astonishing rate.

Online stores, that are horticultural related, provide opportunities for members to buy plants, equipment and other garden related items – often with special offers available through the site.

The mix is great and we have had some great messages of support and success from members.

Why not have a look at the site and let me have your comments – I’d be delighted to hear from you.

Thanks

Tim
