Garden Maintenance Services.

  • Seasonal Care.

    We care for gardens all year round, from seasonal pruning and weeding to thoughtful replanting that keeps your space thriving through every season.

  • Lawn Care.

    We keep lawns neat and healthy all year, offering mowing, edging, and seasonal care. We also create wildlife-friendly lawns with clover, wildflower meadows, and pollinator-friendly planting, so your grass thrives while supporting nature.

  • Soil Health.

    Healthy soil is the heart of every thriving garden. We nurture it through composting, organic matter, and gentle cultivation to build long-term strength and fertility.

  • Mulching.

    Mulching helps your garden retain moisture, suppress weeds, and protect roots year-round. We use natural materials to keep beds tidy and plants happy.

  • Sustainability.

    Our eco-friendly approach to maintenance works with nature, not against it. From wildlife-friendly pruning to low-impact tools, we care for your garden responsibly and sustainably.

  • Garden Tidy-Ups.

    Sometimes life can keep you out of your garden. We offer regular or one-off tidy-ups to keep your garden looking cared for — clearing debris, trimming edges, and refreshing beds while preserving your garden’s natural feel.
