Peat Policy

As a business we are committed to improving the sustainability of our industry, as well as reducing our own environmental impact.

Two thirds of our compost range is now peat free and several of our growers have already removed or reduced peat in their growing media. 

Wherever you see our peat symbol in-store you can be sure the product is either free from, has reduced levels of or has been grown without the use of peat. 

As an industry we researching sustainable alternatives to peat whilst committing to its removal from sale by 2028.

You may have noticed things are looking a little different for Grovewell Aquatics at Tenterden Garden Centre. We have made the difficult decision to remove livestock from our store. This decision was not made lightly, and although the team have an excellent reputation, we were unable to keep Grovewell Aquatics as it was.

Our team remain part of the garden centre and will be on hand to answer any aquatics queries and will assist with the operation of the aquatics sundries department covering all your pond, water feature and pet needs.

Please note, Grovewell Aquatics at Canterbury Garden Centre will continue to stock tropical and cold-water fish.
