Manea School of Gardening offers a range of gardening, horticultural and related courses for amateurs, those looking for a career change and those in industry requiring training and assessment in specific areas. The business seeks to fill a gap in the leisure, education and training network for land-based courses within the local area. Our courses range from part-time day or evening courses through to one-day specialist events. Whist many of our courses are ‘just for fun’….. we are accredited by the Royal Horticultural Society and are offering their courses and qualifications, which are, of course, internationally recognised. These include practical and theoretical courses at various levels which are excellent for anyone in the horticultural profession, or wishing to become involved in it.
