What is growing jobs about?

SEEDA, the Regional Development Agency for the South East, funded Dr Alan Rae of Fletching Glasshouses to look for examples of good practice in workforce management and to develop case studies useful to different types of production horticulture.

This site makes the findings available to growers and policy makers. It contains case studies, guidelines and other outputs of the project. We identified 6 principles of good practice which you can see on the left hand side bar, and we’ve written a 24 page good practice guide which you can download via the form on the right sidebar.

You can find the case studies from the individual companies on their own pages, together with some video clips which allow the companies to tell their own stories for you. Finally, we’ve put together a page of useful resources and contacts.

We would still welcome additional case studies – if you think you’ve got a story that would be useful to other people, give me a ring on 0845 094 0407
