An amazing day visiting two British companies that clearly put their heart into what they do. Our group received amazing insight and fabulous hospitality from both. I went away feeling very enthusiastic about our industry and the wonderful people in it!

It is so reassuring to be with likeminded young people who you can chat freely with about our wonderful industry at these events, and to be truly humbled by the reception we receive from our hosts who passionately want to support young people in Horticulture.

What a great event! I feel like I gain a wider industry understanding every time I attend an in-person event with YPHA. The behind the scenes tours and exclusive access was incredible. Really grateful for the network and knowledge I have gained through being a YPHA member.

"Joining the Young People in Horticulture Association (YPHA) has been a transformative experience for me. As someone who made a career change into the horticulture industry, I found myself seeking a community and support network to navigate this new adventure. The YPHA provided just that and more. From the moment I joined, I felt a sense of belonging and camaraderie among other young professionals in the field. The association offers a safe space where I can freely explore and learn without judgment. I highly recommend YPHA to every young person working or training in horticulture, and thank you to everyone already on board for being so wonderful!"
