Horticulture

Horticulture is already an established industry which is growing in popularity year on year.

As a result of this it is suggested that over 60,000 jobs will be created in the industry over the next 10 years creating fantastic opportunities for you people.

The industry is wide ranging and demands highly trained people to maintain parks, gardens and landscaped areas, as well as produce the plants that are required for many different open and green spaces.

Askham Bryan College has a brilliant resource to train you in all areas of horticulture. We have a superb glasshouse complex for production and propagation, a huge selection of beds and borders around our beautiful campus which are maintained by both staff and students. We also have the newly opened large display house which houses more exotic varieties of plants.

Whilst at the college, there are lots of opportunities to get involved in the practical elements as well as the theory of horticulture. We have a fantastic library and wealth of knowledge with our team.

Are you interested in plants, landscapes and open spaces? Then take a look at our excellent range of courses.
