I'm finally taking on new clients! Limited spaces are available over winter

Garden Mentoring

Garden mentoring is an exciting new programme, offered to inexperienced gardeners.

If you're keen to get stuck in to your garden, but don't know where to start - try out the garden mentoring service!

A friendly, experienced gardener will empower you with the knowledge and skills required to create or makeover your own garden.

Many hands make light work – through hands-on work alongside a mentor, you'll learn the basics of planning, planting, and maintaining your garden.

Written materials which support our face to face time are available to mentoring clients, which build a valuable resource as we explore your garden.

Get a head start on the practical work, while learning the skills for long term gardening success!

Garden Support

This suits people who already enjoy their garden, but may be faced with physical limitations.

I provide a skilled and knowledgeable gardening service; while creating meaningful connection through friendly, empathetic companionship.

A friendly and knowledgeable gardener will provide help, advice, and companionship to help you enjoy your garden again.

Provided gardening services include: weeding, pruning, planting, and general garden maintenance. But gardening isn't only about maintenance! New garden projects are always welcome, including: new garden creations, planting to fill gaps, moving plants, conversion to low maintenance, or setting up vegetable gardens – lets get creative!

This is a very popular option for families who want to support their older family members from afar. I provide gardening and companionship, while giving updates to out of town family members.
