Christmas is coming

With only a 14 days left to shop for Christmas we are starting to see the panic look in peoples eyes. Christmas trees are selling well and I have to say this year the quality is exceptional. We have sourced our trees from Scotland this year from plantations that we have visited in the past and this year they are the best trees we have ever had.
Pot plants are pouring into the centre almost daily and interestingly in the gift area as soon as we have gift wrapped items they have been taken off the shelves. We of course do not charge for the gift wrapping service unlike many of the other garden centres, we also make up garden and wildlife hampers for the customers who want to choose.
We are also putting together our promotional calender for 2009 so do keep a check on the web-site to see up and coming events, we have some really good ones planned for next year.
Tonight is our staff dinner and all the staff from our nursery,garden centre and Learning garden are coming to the Hungry gardener Cafe where we will be plying them with good food and drink, so be gentle with them on Friday there may be a few sore heads around.
