Johnsons Nurseries Ltd is proud to announce the successful completion of its autumn/winter Plant Identification Training Programme, an initiative aimed at enhancing employees' plant knowledge and skills.
This seasonal training programme exemplifies the company’s commitment to fostering professional development and building expertise within its team.
Twenty-five employees who completed the program were formally recognized in a special ceremony, receiving certificates awarded by Group Managing Director Graham Richardson and Production Director Robert Richardson.
The programme builds on a year-round dedication to education, complementing earlier spring and summer Plant Identification Sessions. Together, these programmes provide employees with an in-depth understanding of a wide range of plant groups across all seasons.
In addition to Plant Identification Training, employees have had the opportunity to engage in Plant Health Training and enrol in the Bespoke ‘Introduction to Horticulture’ Course at Askham Bryan College. These initiatives ensure employees are equipped with a robust skill set that encompasses plant care, identification, and overall health management.
Group Managing Director Graham Richardson said: " Johnsons remains committed to ongoing employee development. Plans for 2025 include expanded training opportunities, such as the next round of the ‘Introduction to Horticulture’ Course at Askham Bryan, more Plant Identification Sessions, and more Plant Health Training.
“Our investment in our team reflects our belief that a knowledgeable workforce is key to delivering the best possible service. We’re excited to continue building on this success.”
