The Woodworks Garden Centre is proud to be one of the branches on the tree that makes up the P&A Group of Companies, a family run business with a longstanding timber heritage. The Morgan family has been operating thriving timber yards for over five generations. As the business began to grow, various divisions were formed and in 2005 the Woodworks Garden Centre was born, symbolising the growth of the company and our appreciation of nature and the environment. The Woodworks Garden Centre and Café are situated in the town of Mold, right in the heart of the North Wales borderlands. It has everything you'll need for the garden. Our plant area is vibrant with colour and variety plus non stocked plants sourced on request.
