We've just completed the installation of 55,000 square metres of turf at the Chesfield Downs Golf and Country Club in Hertfordshire. Chesfield Downs is part of Crown Golf, Europe's largest golf operator with 32 golf and leisure facilities in the UK, with whom we have an ongoing contract to supply turf.

…...but still a long way to go at The Wisley!

The Chesfield Downs project took around four weeks from start to finish - rather faster than the ongoing work at The Wisley in Surrey where the members have decided to renovate all 27 holes over a three year period, a project for which we are supplying custom grown turf. The creeping bent is extremely vigorous and can thus be cut regularly to be always at its best. The sandy rootzone exactly matches the material used to construct tees and greens and is thus immediately at home once the turf is laid.

As can be seen from the picture below, The Wisley is one of the most attractive courses in the home counties, so there is a great deal to live up to. To find out more about this and other golf projects contact Alex Edwards to set the ball rolling.

But it's not just about golf!

It's been a good year for supplying golf courses, but then we mustn't forget that our turf is specified at sporting venues like Twickenham, and Wembley; in amenity settings like the Tate Modern, The Oxo Building, The Alnwick Garden and, of course, in public and private opens spaces the length and breadth of the UK.

Is this our best year ever for turf quality?

As well as having over 200,000 square metres of the most fantastic fine turf, our general production turf is, we believe, the best we've ever produced. This has been brought about by a combination of the weather and a much more rigorous and focussed production regime.

If you think we're talking it up, you should come and see the quality for yourself: we don't think we've ever produced better material.
