Why should you choose Turfland?

GrassLet's start with the soil...
"I think the answer lies in the soil" was a catch phrase used by a BBC gardener many years ago. How true these words are. Because when it comes to the quality of living plants, it is the soil which sustains them. By supplying oxygen, essential nutrients and the right balance of moisture. For this reason, Turfland has invested heavily in the purchase of land. Not just any land, but the right land. That’s why over forty years ago, our founder, Chris Watmore combed the whole of the UK and



SoilEurope to identify and secure the very best site for turf cultivation. He found it right here on the West Lancashire coast. Land which has a unique and traceable history!

Thousands of years ago, the area which now comprises our Southport nurseries were submerged under the ocean, covered in pure sea-washed sand and marine shells. As the ocean receded, sand dunes were whipped up by the winds, turning the area into a vast salt water lake, which gradually gave way to fresh water. Dying water life and plants sank to the bottom, forming a fertile organic base. By the time Queen Victoria ascended to the throne, all that was left of this lake was a rich wetland. Being exceptional drainage and water engineers, the Victorians drained the marshes with a network of dykes and pumping stations. So was created some of the most fertile and productive Grade 1 soil in the country.

Turfland’s nurseries offer a choice of soils, from the almost pure sand and mineral soils found at the shallow edges of the former lake, to the rich, dark organic loams found at its centre.

TurfNurture it...

All our turf is cultivated by a team of experts, using proven techniques, the very latest sophisticated equipment and unlimited irrigation. The result is a range of top quality turf to meet any need.


Turf Cuter...and revolutionary harvesting techniques.

Our turf is harvested in lightweight full square metre rolls all year round, giving you 20% less handling than the square yard rolls harvested by many other turf suppliers. Our harvesters use floating cutter heads which ensure uniformity in the width, depth and length of cut. Rolls are handled only once as they are stacked, thereby minimising damage through over-handling. We have also eliminated all the expense and hassle associated with heavy wooden pallets by using a unique palletless fork system.
