How We Work: |
|
|
We will have an initial meeting with you to discuss your requirements. You need to think about your likes and dislikes and what you want from your garden plus any budget you may have in mind. |
|
|
Next we will carry out a survey. We will measure your garden and note any important features both good and bad about your yard and the surrounding area.
When we start to design the work plan for your garden we always take an holistic approach. We start from the soil up - establishing your soil type and its drainage characteristics.
Next, we look at your own individual microclimate. This includes the temperature range, the amount of rainfall and any prevailing winds. We base each new planting of garden design around our unique eco-audit which minimizes any harmful effects on the environment.
We will suggest eco-friendly features as appropriate such as green energy systems. Finally, we choose plants and features which will help to attract wildlife and naturally tolerate your set of climatic conditions.
Your garden will be unique to you - we promise! We will work with you to certify your backyard as a National Wildlife Federation wildlife habitat.
