CO-OPERATIVE

As a consortium cooperative our structure means it is run for the benefit of its members who are businesses, end users, researchers and other horticultural-linked trades and professions. 

 

By being part of the Good to Grow co-op they may benefit from economies of scale, support, marketing, tendering and innovation. So economically growth may be achieved while costs and risk may be reduced. It also enables members to retain their own brand identity, independence and control.

 

Our business is horticulture in the broadest terms but we plan to offer a service which reaches out to all sectors of the industry and enables engagement between the general public and trade. We will offer an umbrella service from incorporating advice, education and outreach, networking, design, horticultural therapy and production. So basically connecting people on a horticultural stage while also offering events, training and advice.

The key objectives are to actively increase pollinators while sustaining and creating employment. The Co-operative hopes to bridge the gap, building knowledge, creativity and horticultural at grass roots, while becoming a veritable hive of activity for all its members.

WHAT IS A COOPERATIVE

Co-operatives exist to serve their members, whether they are the customers, the employees or the local community.  Because they do not need to bring benefits to outside shareholders, co-operative can focus on making sure that members get the best service – Cooperative Alternatives.
