Hassocks school’s planting project given local boost
A village school is set for a makeover of its planters thanks to generous donations.
With much-needed plants as well as some potting donated by nearby family-run South Downs Nurseries, Hassocks Infants is set for a riot of seasonal colour.
The Chancellors Park school were given herbs, shrubs and alpine plants to complement others from the National Trust to spruce up its main entrance. They will provide an attraction for the children, parents and everyone visiting the school.
“We’re especially proud to support Hassocks Infant School with this planting project, right here in our local community”, said Benjamin Tate, executive director of the Brighton Road business.
“As a Hassocks-based garden centre, it means a great deal to contribute to a space that will be enjoyed by children, families and visitors alike. It’s wonderful to see these planters being brought back to life, and we’re delighted our plants can play a part in that,” he added.
