Spear and Jackson teams up with award-winning garden and landscape designer, Lee Bestall

Brand-leading garden tools company, Spear and Jackson, has teamed up with the award-winning garden landscape designer, Lee Bestall, of Bestall & Co. Both based in Sheffield, the two have a long-standing relationship and Spear and Jackson are pleased to announce that Lee will officially be renewing his role as their Brand Ambassador with effect from 1st January 2018.

In Lee, Spear and Jackson have found a partner who shares their passion for gardening and outdoor living. A regular contributor to industry titles and a stand-in presenter on BBC Radio Sheffield’s Gardeners Question Hour, Lee has an increasingly popular public profile and is enjoying great success as a garden designer at high profile events such as RHS Chelsea Flower Show.

 

Spear and Jackson have worked with Lee on a series of short videos aimed at amateur gardeners. The videos are presented by Lee and provide regular hints and tips on seasonal gardening jobs, coupled with advice on the best tools and how to use them. Most recently Spear and Jackson developed a series of project videos in which Lee provides practical advice on tackling those bigger garden jobs like installing a fence, creating a raised bed and building a deck.
