Grasslands

Grasslands was formed in 1981 when farmer, Peter Baxter, astutely identified an opportunity to take advantage of his prime location amid what is widely considered to be the region’s premier turf growing area, and diversify from mainstream agriculture. Following Peter’s recent retirement, his younger son Simon, who has worked with his father in the family business for the past 20 years, now manages the company, with the support of a full time team of 25.
Our quality turf graces the landscapes of some of the South’s most noteworthy addresses including the Tower of London and the Natural History Museum, Kew Gardens (2008), Bluewater and the new home of Eurostar, Ebbsfleet International Station (2007). Furthermore, we provide turf for literally thousands of private gardens across the South East every single year.
