his new, educational initiative is designed to strengthen retailers’ understanding of the Bord na Móna Growise range of products. Join a journey of discovery with Bord na Móna at Glee, and uncover the key ingredients that make up its award-winning products, and their technical significance.

Retailers will also be introduced to the Little Book of Ingredients: the ultimate handbook and training tool for understanding Bord na Móna’s approach to high-quality, responsibly-sourced products.
