Prize Winning Gardens 2008

In 2004 Böd Ayre Products Ltd started the first Shetland-wide gardening competition. Although there are a number of local gardening competitions, there was nothing prior to this point giving recognition for good gardening throughout the isles. We really enjoy supporting and celebrating the efforts of Shetland's gardeners.

Our other competition years:

Best Established Garden

  • Adam Leslie - First prize

    Tingwall

  • Johnnie Walterson - Second prize

    Scalloway

  • Marjory & Ray Dawson - Third prize

    Brae

    It had been intended to award only 1st and 2nd prizes in 2008 however the judges felt this garden certainly needed recognition, resulting in a 3rd prize being awarded.

Best New Garden

  • Sara Kay - First prize

    East Voe, Scalloway

  • Jean & Alistair McBride - Second prize

    Out Skerries

    There are no images for this lovely garden in Out Skerries - such a remote island, where it proves that successful gardening can be achieved almost anywhere if proper shelter, suitable plants and dedication is given.
