Tool Donation from Flymo

This week we have received a generous donation of new tools from Flymo. They have given us two long handled fruit pickers, three shears and two loppers. We really appreciate this support from a great north east company!

Flymo has been established since 1964 and is still situated in its original factory in County Durham. Since inventing the original hover lawnmower, Flymo have continued to be at the forefront of innovations within the garden care industry, making them one of the most trusted gardening brands today.
