A group of horticultural organisations including the RHS are inviting young filmmakers to create an inspiring film promoting horticulture as an exciting career choice.
Using the strapline ‘The Earth in Our Hands’, filmmakers are asked to submit an original storyboard for a film that encourages young people to consider a career in the industry.
The winning filmmaker will have access to £10,000 to produce their film.
GROW Careers is an initiative set up by horticultural organisations including the RHS, British Growers Association, Farming and Countryside Education (FACE), The Horticultural Development Company (HDC), The Institute of Horticulture (IoH), LANTRA, The Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh (RBGE), and professional gardener and TV presenter David Domoney’s company Domoney Ltd.
The completed film will be launched in September this year and used to inspire potential young horticulturalists in schools and colleges and at events such as the RHS Chelsea Flower Show 2015.
The closing date for entries is Friday 21 March. Find full details here.
