Garden Design

It’s so exciting when you consider the many opportunities we have to create beautiful gardens of productivity, sanctuary and delight, while caring for our environment at the same time.

Working with nature is a wonderful partnership and we can do this in many ways. It begins with designing ways in which your garden can work for you, giving you more time to enjoy your endeavours.

Starting with the soil, by helping nature work its own magic, our gardening work becomes so much simpler and more enjoyable. When we use organic matter, through mulching, composting and worm farming, we can enrich our soil and protect the wonderful ecosystems that help our plants to thrive.

Caring for our water becomes more effective and efficient when we look after our soil, adding organic matter and mulch to retain moisture and choosing plants that suit our location.

Following organic principles and creating a diversity rich environment helps encourage wildlife, including birds, bees, butterflies and beneficial insects, which can enhance our gardens and our lives.

And of course the 3 R’s – reduce, reuse, recycle. Not only can we save money and time, but can have fun thinking of clever ways to solve gardening challenges.

A beautiful outside garden space offers wonderful benefits for our lives. Partnering with nature and working together can create that space, and help save the planet, one garden at a time!

Happy gardening,
