GroundsFest organisers are keen to encourage colleges and their students to attend the event and have kindly offered the following:
- A free trade stand for your college/university at GroundsFest located in the education zone.
- A travel bursary for you to bring landscaping students to the show, this will allow them to meet with industry leaders, take part in training and demonstrations, and listen to educational seminars.

I and my fellow Trustees look forward to meeting you at our forum.
