Bridgwater College’s Walled Gardens of Cannington recently welcomed over 10 businesses and approximately 20 delegates to a special networking event.

Visitors were given a guided tour of the Gardens by Grounds Manager, Andre Gardener and Grounds and Gardens Supervisor, Jayne Alcock, which detailed the variety of plants and flowers displayed and the history of the Gardens. Guests were then invited to refreshments and network in the Gardens’ Tea Room.

Simon Grundy, Head of Agriculture, Food and Land Management at Bridgwater College said,

“The event is great for making links with local businesses, who may have clients who would be interested in visiting our Gardens and who may need land-based apprentices. The event is also great for the businesses as they are potential providers for accommodation for Bridgwater College’s commercial training delegates.”
