REA Organics’ first Member Forum of 2026, we’re pleased to co-host a visit to Melcourt’s Tetbury composting site!

On the day, REA members can expect a hosted tour of Melcourt’s Tetbury site, with an overview of Melcourt’s operation and how they manufacture and quality-manage their growing media and soil-improver products. They’ll also share practical insights into their raw material sourcing and processing, sustainability approach, and end markets – finishing with time for Q&A and discussion with the Melcourt team.
