OUR FREE, IN-STORE GROW HOW DEMONSTRATIONS WILL TAKE PLACE ON THE FIRST SATURDAY AND FIRST WEDNESDAY OF THE MONTH, AT 10.30AM AND 3.30PM

We’re encouraging the nation to grow their own and work with the seasons to maximise their outdoor and indoor space, no matter how big or small! Grow How offers you an interactive opportunity to learn from our Green Team and improve your gardening skills.

These educational sessions are built to be flexible, fun and interactive. Taking around 30 minutes, you can look forward to a live demonstration followed by a Q&A session, where a member of our Green Team will share their top tips and know-how.

Join us on Saturday 3 and Wednesday 7 May at 10.30am and 3.30pm to learn all about loving our lawns and how Dobbies is supporting Alzheimer Research UK’s Think Brain Health campaign to inspire people to keep their brain healthy through gardening and garden living.

The workshop will cover:

The basics
Mowing, watering, feeding & fertilising
Aeration and weeding
Year-round lawn care calendar
Plus a demo on how to repair your lawn with grass plugs

Book your place or join us on the day.

We are proud to be supporting and working in partnership with Alzheimer’s Research UK to highlight the benefits of garden living for brain health and to raise funds to help find a cure for dementia.

Alzheimer’s Research UK’s Think Brain Health campaign aims to educate people about the steps they can take to look after their brains and help reduce the risk of dementia. The campaign is focused on three simple rules – love your heart, stay sharp and keep connected.

Gardening is a great activity to keep hearts healthy through physical exercise; our brains sharp by learning new skills; to stay connected through the joy that gardens bring.

As well as getting out into the garden, you can also support Alzheimer Research UK by donating at the time of booking or in store on the day.

Please note that advanced booking is not required put preferred to allow our store colleagues to prepare the best session possible for you
