Request Do you have your own local authority plant nursery? Does it have a peat-free policy? Do you have a peat-free policy for sourcing plants and growing media (compost) for parks? What percentage of peat-free plants do you estimate you currently use? Response No. No, but the Council does not use peat products or growing medium. Our bedding plants equate to approximately 20,000 plants. Shrubs and trees are ad hoc to particular schemes and sourced accordingly. Back to top
