SAVE HARE HATCH SHEEPLANDS

Hare Hatch Nursery is a competitive business with a good range of garden plants and shrubs. They stock a good selection of garden tools, seeds,bulbs , pesticides etc as well as some garden ornaments. They also have a relatively small selection of books and gifts which is very useful. This business has grown and expanded over a number of years through sheer hard work, providing high quality garden plants etc. the provision of a cafe is a great bonus for resting weary feet when selecting plants etc and the farm shop enables meat, veg etc to be purchased on site. This is a far superior business when compared to other garden centres in the vicinity, this comment is based on my many visit to Hare Hatch nursery over many years. All their plants and shrubs are of a superior quality and competitvely priced. The plants thrive and survive where as plants and shrubs purchased from garden centre opposite have been expensive and have had a poor survival and. Growth rate. I have used both garden centres in the past, have visited the nearest garden center to check quality of their stock and the prices which are exhorbatent. Hare Hatch Nursery should never have been put in the position of having to appeal to continue the business it is a preposterous situation which the general public feel strongly about. We want Hare Hatch Nursery to continue trading as it is at present. The idea that th council may have been subject to pressure from a larger nursery with a number of branches is obscene and is very concerning for all people living in the Wokingham Councils area. We pay a fortunate in Council Tax let us have the business we want NOT what YOU THINK we should have.
