The Big Green Money Show - For Peat's Sake

The government is considering banning the retail sale of peat in compost, so can the supply chain cope if a ban comes in? Lots of gardeners insist peat-free compost is inferior as well, are they right? Dobbies, Britain’ biggest garden centre chain, stopped selling peat-based composts at the beginning of 2022. They tell Deborah and Fliss how they did it and what customers made of it.
