School Gardens
Along with thousands of our customers, at Harrod Horticultural we're passionate about the organic growing of fruit and vegetables and believe that this magical experience shouldn't pass by the children of today.

Every child should grow up knowing what good food is, where it comes from and how to grow it themselves. It's a journey they'll never forget and many could walk out of your school as the gardeners of tomorrow.

And we're here to help you start and/or sustain projects, big or small. With school discounts of up to 20% OFF on selected gardening equipment from the Harrod Horticultural range and plenty of teacher resource on this site - what's stopping your school from delivering one of life's important lessons?

Let the harvest begin!
It’s time to harvest baby beetroot, radishes, the first carrots, peas and potatoes. Strawberries will be ripe so start picking before the birds reach them! Lettuces and mixed salads can be harvested too before they bolt or flower and can be replaced with new salad seed for a regular supply.

Keep Planting Out.
Plant out courgettes, pumpkins, squashes. They will grow swiftly and the first courgettes should be ready within a few weeks. Any French or Runner beans grown in pots should be planted out now. Tie them into the wigwams prepared last month and then leave them to grow.  They will need no further tying in, as they will twine around the supports.

Make Sure You Water!
Keep a careful watch on growing vegetables during dry spells. Be prepared to water everything if no rain is forecast and look out for signs of wilting or dying leaves. Soak the earth thoroughly around each group of plants. A light watering is not enough.
