Our Dedicated and Trustworthy Team
Having always been passionate about gardening and green spaces we wanted to develop our knowledge, our enthusiasm and passion into a career that would allow us to share our love with others.
We have trained with the Royal Horticultural Society and City & Guilds to increase our knowledge and understanding of how gardens and green spaces can be maintained, cared for and designed to create bespoke spaces.
Our previous roles have helped us see the benefit of green spaces - from helping create a memory sensory garden for older people with dementia to creating indoor spaces for those without gardens who can still enjoy the beauty of nature.
Matt
Gardener / Director
I'm Matt - the elder half of The Gardening Duo, gardening has always been a passion of mine since childhood. I have worked in Care for many years, often finding that working in the grounds helped many of my clients I supported, finding a calm space for those with mental health issues, to helping older people create sensory memory spaces, helping them recall happy times and learning from them some traditional gardening methods
I decided that it was time to take my passion and gain some grounded knowledge, so enrolled on the Royal Horticulture Society City & Guilds course and loved it. I have learnt a lot in many different aspects of gardens from managing gardens in different seasons to using the right tool for the right task.
I love sharing ideas for new designs and projects and helping people see their vision come to life.
Simon
Gardener / Director
I'm Simon - the younger half of the Gardening Duo. I have been passionate about gardening for many years and find gardening a nice way to relax and be creative.
My background is very different to gardening and is in Insurance as a Fraud Investigator. After I turned 40 in 2023, I decided it was time to learn more about gardening so enrolled on a City & Guilds in Horticulture which I thoroughly enjoyed, learnt a lot about different plants, soil, compost and has been nice putting my knowledge to good practice. I have also done a Diploma in Garden Design which has been interesting.
I like to be creative and to work alongside a client to create a space that they will enjoy and seeing an end result and that sense of accomplishment.
