Happy N'ewe Year!

2015 is the Year of the Sheep.

Many sheep farmers will be finalising their preparations for the forthcoming busy lambing season, while others will be starting to put plans in place now that the New Year has arrived.

Premier Polytunnels is now closed for the Christmas holidays and will re-open on Friday 2nd January 2015.

The ‘Premier’ team would like to thank everyone for their support throughout 2014 – it has been a great year which saw the launch of our new website and welcomed new members to the team.

We have more exciting plans for 2015 which we can’t wait to share with you!

When you make the decision to invest in a polytunnel, you want to be confident that the structure will stand the test of time, especially during a harsh British winter.

It is no surprise, therefore, that some customers have questions about how to build a polytunnel, wondering if you will be able to build your own polytunnel.

We are delighted to tell you that our hometown of Barnoldswick has won a Gold Award in the 'Town' category of the North West In Bloom Awards. This is the fourth time the town has won a Gold!

Barnoldswick also won the 'Overall Best Town in the North West' Award.

But that’s not all... Barlick, as it is known locally, has also been chosen to represent the whole of the North West in the Britain in Bloom Awards!

What are people growing?

Last month we carried out a survey to find out what people are growing in their polytunnels...
Are you growing the same in your polytunnel or are you surprised by the results?

A group of award-winning gardeners from Blackpool have paid tribute to all those who lost their lives during World War One and Two.

Members of the Blackpool Federation of Allotments Association (BFAA) were presented with two awards for their fantastic display stand at Southport Flower Show last month.

Schoolchildren in Plymouth have celebrated the opening of their ‘Premier’ polytunnel with the help of The Allotment Project.

The 10ft wide x 30ft long polytunnel was set up on a community plot near Laira Green Primary School, in Laira, Plymouth. The joint project between the school and the community aims to educate the pupils on where food comes from and how to grow their own. It will also teach adults in the community about what the pupils learn.

On Monday 14th July, our construction team built this steel polytunnel frame to support this beautiful wisteria archway in a customer's garden.

Polytunnels... not just for growing in, but also for growing over! (Sort of).

Hello and welcome to the new Premier Polytunnels website.

As our old website was reaching its fifth anniversary, we decided it was time to update and refresh... and here is the result of all our hard work!
