TRADE DAY REPORT
Trade Day report By Nan Cleven
August Trade Day saw early signs of spring, with daylight a little earlier and buyers a little keener as we all prepare for the traditionally busy months ahead. After our very memorable 40th anniversary celebrations in 2018 – back in the Caribbean Gardens days – now another five years on and August 2023 marks the 45th Anniversary of Trade Day. A great achievement everyone – very well done! And for September, after what seemed a long cold winter, a cool and overcast spring day at KCC park began this busiest season of the year for the nursery industry.

Let’s all celebrate – Facey’s team taking the opportunity to ‘double up’ on the birthday celebrations – August also marked their 64th anniversary. Treats aplenty to share.
