The Green Room Episode 4: 'What happens when a Yorkshire farmer builds a golf course?'

 

 

In the podcast this week, Karl and BIGGA Member Services Manager Sandra Raper pay a visit to Phil Rowbottom, BIGGA member and owner of Woolley Park. Phil's a lifelong farmer who has been operating a golf course since 1995.

Thanks for listening to this week’s podcast and we hope you enjoy finding out a little more about the science and art of golf course greenkeeping in the UK. We’d love to hear your feedback on the podcast and all the other activities undertaken by BIGGA throughout the year. If you’d like to get in touch with me about the podcast or our stable of magazines, Greenkeeper International and Your Course, email [email protected].

Take the opportunity to rate us on Apple Podcasts as it’d be good to get this to the top of the list. The more people know about the sports turf industry, the more understanding people will have about the hard work of BIGGA members and other greenkeepers.
