Small garden design for every body and budget
I started A Patch of Green because I know that having a connection to the earth makes life genuinely better. You don't need to own your home, have a big budget, or know the first thing about plants to enjoy a garden that feels like yours.
I'm a horticulturist and landscape designer working with renters, neurodivergent gardeners, and anyone who's felt a bit stuck with their outdoor space. I'll listen to what you actually need, work with your sensory preferences and budget, and bring the plant knowledge to back it up. Everything I do is grounded in sustainable, organic methods because a garden that's good for you should be good for the planet too.
I’d love to help you create your own patch of green.
Services
Garden design, co-gardening and garden maintenance services for those with small gardens, renters and neurodivergent gardeners.
Garden Design
I create practical, beautiful and sustainable gardens for renters, small spaces, and anyone feeling stuck with their outdoor area. For renters, I focus on low-cost and portable solutions so that green space remains accessible to you even if you don’t own your home.
Co-gardening
Gardening is often easier when shared with others. This service is for you if you struggle with motivation or require physical assistance to get your hands in the soil. By working side by side, we can build your confidence and create a garden that brings genuine calm, mental well-being, and joy to your daily life.
Garden Care
As a qualified horticulturist, I care for gardens that need a softer touch than a standard mowing service provides. This is a quiet maintenance option for those who are sensitive to loud noises, fumes, or harsh chemicals. Using hand tools and organic methods ensures your garden remains a peaceful place for both you and local wildlife.
