What we do

We have proudly supported gardeners and horticulturists at all levels since 1929. As a result, our offering is vast.

As a charity

We are passionate about the conservation of alpine plants and are committed to sharing knowledge about these plants and their habitats. A registered charity, we fund cultivation and conservation projects across the UK. We also support the development of knowledge and skills in the alpine field.
