Our Blog

Welcome to our blog.
We are passionate about gardens and understand that they are not only our own treasured outdoor living spaces but also a haven for many other species. This blog will cover a vast range of topics from wildlife to plants to equipment used to the general work that we do. Each of our ideas of what a garden should be is subjective and this is what makes it so fascinating; we welcome you all to share your ideas.
We hope you will enjoy
