How Clarenbridge Garden Centre started

Clarenbridge Garden Centre was set up in 2004 by David Farragher, a graduate of Kildalton Horticultural College in Co. Kilkenny.
Gardening was in David’s blood since childhood when David’s grandfather – Tim Power introduced David to gardening at the tender age of 5, at his railway cottage garden in Athenry (Galway) and there the love of gardening began.
David pursued this love of gardening, making it his career and eventually setting up his very own garden centre in the picturesque village of Clarenbridge in County Galway. The garden centre has expanded over the past ten years and now stocks all things gardening related.
Clarenbridge Garden Centre today
Clarenbridge Garden Centre is very much a family-orientated business with both David’s mother Kathleen and David’s brother Kieran heavily involved in the day-to-day running of the business.
Kieran joined the team in 2010 and now heads up the very successfully landscaping side of the business. Here is our team:

Super newly found treasure!...The garden centre is full of goodies and stocked with a huge variety of quality plants and with experts on hand to answer all the questions. Great bargains, friendly customer service and value for the money! Looking forward to this weekend - I heard they are doing another great sale - this time I am heading for those beautiful silver birches and dogwood!

Went there today to collect two hedge plants that I won. Met a lovely lady who was so helpful explaining how to plant them & what else we could use in our garden. Really nice guy took them to the car. First time there & we will definitely be going back. Great customer service. Thanks.
