Nationwide Delivery – Soils, Aggregates & Construction Waste Management
Following our involvement at recent RHS Chelsea shows, supplying topsoils and aggregates to prestigious landscapes, this week we have been supplying bagged material for the RHS Hampton Court Garden Festival. With many of the garden builds well underway, our bagged deliveries were scheduled closely and with access and timing of high importance.
Working with the “Four Season Sanctuary” organiser Fran Handley, the garden, featured in the Get Started Gardens category, has been designed by Tim Jennings. Tim is a Cambridgeshire based designer who is renowned for his outdoor space creation from small courtyards to the grandest homes and estates.
Sustainable gardens, connected to the earth
“The garden is a place to be together or contemplate alone. A place to feel connected to the essential elements of life; rich earth, natural water, a warming fire and a breath of clear air.”
The garden’s setting – Edwardian townhouse in suburban Cambridge – will be constructed by Green Vision Landscaping and will feature UK field-grown trees and hedging. Where structures would normally be supported by concrete, the recycled timber features will be set in the BS3882 topsoil supplied by MCM, rammed to firm up the securest of footings.
The Type 3 aggregates will form part of the sub-bases across the design and hedging will be used in favour of walls, further reinforcing the sustainable approach to the garden’s construction.
The garden will be relocated to the grounds of MENCAP charity headquarters in Watford after the Show, which will run from 2-7 July 2024.
