The
business The business was started in the late 1960's by Mr V Gibilaro senior who is still an active partner in the business. When the business commenced the lea Valley was a thriving area for horticulture, since the advent of housing the total number of acres has dwindled to to 20% of that size. This has meant that the survivors had to be proficient and hard working to maintain a viable business. The total acreage of the Villa nursery is 23 of which just fewer than 8 are of recently built glasshouses. Originally all production was carried out organically. Now through hotiponics the system has meant that production is increased together with a higher grade of product. |

The Environment As a conscientious business the environment is very important to Villa nursery pushing dirty smoke in the atmosphere has always been something that we have been against. To combat this Villa Nursery has invested in a chp unit with energy company Nedalo this is a partnership where the by product of the production of electricity is heat and co2. As we are a major user of heat this is then used by us in the heating system and the co2 is purified and used in the greenhouse for better production only emitting non toxin fumes in the atmosphere.
