I aim to recycle as much as possible, using your green bin, compost heap, or mulching on-site where I can.
I offer large reusable green waste bags for any extra waste you’d like to dispose of at the tip, or I can remove it for you for a small extra charge (£10–£50), depending on weight and volume.
If you’re new to gardening and eager to learn more, why not book a personalized gardening coaching session?
These sessions can be tailored to your specific needs, or you can follow a year-round course that guides you through what to do in your garden each month. Perfect for building your confidence and knowledge, one step at a time!
Feel free to reach out to me via WhatsApp, email, or phone. If I’m out in the garden, I’ll respond as soon as I’m able.
Looking forward to hearing from you!
