I don't know but 'Fargro' in Littlehampton where I used to buy 'Cambark' now stock a product made by 'Melcourt' which seems very similar.

I think Ian the Christie kind told us a while ago a that the 'Melcourt' version was now the one he used... anyone else remember that?
No point asking I the CK meantime... he'll be up to his ears with Gardening Scotland "stuff" .

Stockists of the Sinclair Bark Products shown below. Looks OK for Gerry but Mark will be struggling

Melcourt looks equally difficult to obtain too.

I got Cambark from Glendoik who were at a local gardening event last year. It looks like it is breaking down.
