As a trade association representing the horticulture and landscaping industry we have always put sustainability at the heart of what we do as an association. Our National Garden Gift Voucher scheme was one of the first major gift card schemes to move away from PVC cards to card-based ecoboard. Our offices use energy-saving LED lighting, and we use a renewable energy provider for the association's electricity. In terms of social contribution we support Greenfingers charity, and have supported school gardening at our local primary school since shortly after we moved into our current premises.
We're not standing still though, and there's more to do. It's our policy to be environmentally and socially sustainable as part of our continuous improvement. You can read more about how we go about this in our sustainability policy below.
As the trades association for the horticulture industry, the HTA has influence over the sustainability footprint of the industry. We aim to help our members become as sustainable as they can possibly be. We need to ensure that we are also aiming to be as sustainable as possible. Therefore, the HTA is committed to the following Sustainability Policy.
