A huge amount of time, preparation, care and effort goes into every bag & bottle of RocketGro. Together we are making RocketGro products progressively better and better to enable gardeners across the country achieve more Peat-Free growing success in their gardens, veg patches, allotments & homes. We are RocketGro.

Scott heads up logistics at RocketGro. With 20 years working in logistics our product is in a safe pair of hands. Managing a team of drivers and our fleet of arctic lorries, Scott organises RocketGro trade deliveries across the UK and into the Republic of Ireland. He also oversees the single pallet send outs, Parcel Force and our ecommerce shop.
Production
Will
Will heads up the running of our bagging and production facility. When he isn’t out on the RocketGro farm harvesting the Maize, Rye & Grass that go into the Bio-digesters, he can be found with his sleeves rolled up bagging and processing 100’s of pallets of RocketGro products at a time. Multi-talented, but happiest when operating big machinery.
