Garden design and care grounded in nature

A Patch of Green creates small garden sanctuaries for renters and neurodivergent gardeners in Naarm/Melbourne

I work with people like you who want a restful place to reconnect with nature, grow your own food, and just be.

Services

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, especially 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.
