We are delighted to have a panel made up of Arthur Cole, Chris Inchley and Mike Burks
Arthur Cole, Head of Programmes, The Newt in Somerset
|
Arthur has been involved in professional horticulture since the age of 19. Having been a Head Gardener in Scotland, a permaculturalist in New York, a kitchen gardener in Suffolk and a specialist bulb grower in the Cotswolds, Arthur is now Head of Programmes at the Newt in Somerset. Arthur’s time spent cultivating snowdrops turned him into an unabashed galanthophile, a condition he fears shall never leave him!

Home to thousands of plants all year round, some of which are grown on site, Castle Gardens is situated in the original walled kitchen garden of Sherborne Castle Estate and has blossomed into a vibrant garden centre at the heart of the local community. The team works regularly with schools, charities and community groups to help raise awareness of their vital initiatives, while also promoting interest in gardening along the way.
