Grass Trimming Keepsakes

Give fans a genuine piece of where it happened.

Midton transforms real grass trimmings from iconic pitches, courses and playing fields into unique sports memorabilia and fan gifts.

From football and rugby to golf, cricket and other field sports, genuine grass can be preserved inside a range of practical, affordable keepsakes — giving more fans the opportunity to own a real piece of sporting history.

A Genuine Piece of the Playing Surface

This isn’t simply merchandise inspired by a sporting moment.

It contains a genuine piece of where it happened.

Grass trimmings can be collected from a stadium, pitch or course and preserved within bespoke acrylic products — creating an authentic connection between the fan, the place and the moments, memories and history that make it special.

Whether it comes from an iconic stadium, championship-winning pitch, famous golf course or a playing surface being replaced after years of history, the material becomes a lasting and tangible part of the sporting story.

One Story. A Range of Sports Keepsakes.

Our Grass Trimming Keepsakes are designed as a more accessible addition to our premium Legacy Cubes™, making genuine sports memorabilia suitable for larger fan and retail programmes.

Bottle Openers

Different products. Different audiences.
The same genuine connection.

Working with Midton has been a great experience. They brought their expertise to us and took sections of the Racecourse ground turf and transformed them into stunning memorabilia pieces for our fans around the world. Midton really brought my vision to life and have been a great partner for this.

Mike Walker

Head of Club Licensing and Retail, Wrexham AFC

GAY TIMES has worked with Midton twice now, and on both occasions they went above and beyond to make it an easy process for us. And, of course, on both occasions we were absolutely delighted by the awards they created for our flagship LGBTQ+ event. We can’t wait to work with them on our next idea!

Sophie Christophersen

Senior Producer, Gay Times

We have enjoyed a long-standing relationship with Midton, and are extremely and consistently thrilled with the products created for us. Not only do we trust in the team to deliver quality every time, we also very much appreciate the excellent service provided; we’re well looked after and feel valued as a client, but equally the same can be said for our orders – always carefully and caringly packaged, and delivered on time.

Joanna Andersen

Special Projects Director, Creative Head Magazine

Midton met our needs perfectly and were an easy company to deal with. We had an idea for a corporate memento which didn’t quite work however Midton made some suggested changes and turned this into a very successful product. They understood our requirements, suggested alternative ways to meet these requirements and were flexible in what they offered. We would certainly use their services again.

Stuart Alexander

Chief Operating Officer, Hampden & Co

Midton designed us a beautiful financial tombstone for us using a combination of different materials – wood, acrylic and metal. A very reliable and professional service with a quick turnaround time and reasonable pricing. Would definitely recommend them to any business looking for something genuinely unique that they can be proud to display in the office or send to clients.
