Top Christmas tree growers meet at Blackthorpe Barn

More than sixty top Christmas tree experts and growers from all over the UK and abroad converged on the Rougham Estate for a meeting at Blackthorpe Barn on 24 July, with experts flying in from both Denmark and Scotland.

Rougham Estate owner and Christmas tree grower George Agnew said ‘The British Christmas tree Growers Association decided to visit us here in Rougham because of our reputation for growing award winning trees and as a former Christmas tree Grower of the Year. Meetings like this are very important to enable the sharing of the latest ideas. As Christmas tree growers here at Rougham, we are passionate to grow the best trees in the country and meetings like this are a vital part of that work.’
