Hide AdDo you know a group, garden, charity or hospice that has gone above and beyond through trying times? In honour of the King’s Coronation, Mirfield Garden Centre wants to celebrate the people and places who have made a difference in the community.
To commemorate the occasion, they will be donating a suitably royal tree from their garden centre to be planted by the winner and celebrated by the local areas as they watch the Coronation CelebraTree grow year after year.
So, whether it be a community garden, allotment, retirement home or charity outdoor space, Mirfield garden Centre want to ‘green it up’ with their CelebraTree Coronation campaign.

Hide AdEllis Healey, manager of Mirfield Garden Centre said: “We want to bring the community together for our new King Charles III and Queen Camilla.
“CelebraTree will recognise the hard-working groups and individuals that make our community what it is and plant a tree that will benefit future generations. And what is a coronation party without cake?
“We can’t wait to see children’s designs and bring them to life, creating a cake worthy of a place in the Bake-Off final.”
