Letters / Congratulations, Liam!

Contributed

I congratulate Liam Anderson on winning best SVQ student at Elmwood College (Award for blogging gardener; SN, 01/06/15).

Very few Shetlanders, let alone young Shetland men, make horticulture their career paths.

Ornamental horticulture has a relatively short tradition in Shetland and we badly need a horticultural skill and knowledge base. Liam has blazed a trail in that direction and I hope others will follow his example.

I’d also like to take this opportunity to say how much I enjoy reading Liam’s and Diane’s blog.
