About Bumble Bees

At Bumble Bees, we pride ourselves on a highly professional team that still retains that special personal touch. Our staff have a wealth of experience in commercial grounds and gardens maintenance, interior landscape management and plant container gardening.

Bumble Bees operates as a specialist grounds maintenance contractor. Grounds maintenance and office plant provision and care and associated services are the core operation of our business. We do not engage in any other activity, in the belief that to do so would dilute our three fundamental principles on which our reputation is built; quality, reliability and value.

A Brief History

Bumble Bees was formed in 1989 by Yvonne Davies. It is a family run business based in Milton Keynes. Its primary business was that of providing office plants. In 1994 we expanded our services to include commercial landscape maintenance. In 1997 Yvonne won the Milton Keynes Women in Enterprise award. Bumble Bees has also grown through acquisition of small local companies in the same Industry. The company only employs local people and also works with local professional sub-contractors.
