I am in need of a large amount of greenery in preparation for making approx 100 table decorations and door hangings for family, friends and of course the church for Christmas. Connifers, holly and Ivy are the main things required, has anybody any suggestions where I could get any of the above? Alternatively is anyone cutting back or chopping any connifers down.
All help / advise greatly appreciated

you could try chelford market (wholesale flowers, fruit, veg etc etc). On a wednesday I think. If you can source it from freind, great, but be careful about taking it from the 'wild', I think you can be prosecuted for it. My mum raids my llandi trees and the three varigated holly bushes in my back garden every year to do half a dozen xmas wreaths, dont think they will provide for the amount your planning though.

Yes would love the Ivy please, unfortunatley as I only have 8 postings I am unable to reply via PM and I do not really want to put my phone number on for all to see. Would it be possible to PM me with address / email or a contact number please? If possible I would like to come on Sunday and hack away, please be rest assured I will leave it looking presentable.
Many thanks.

If you want to call at the Merlin Theatre on Sunday pm (about 5pm) there should be lots going spare if someone doesn't take it first.
