Design that reuses existing materials or uses sustainable materials minimises the environmental impact of your garden. By minimising hard landscaping and working in harmony with your surrounding landscape your garden space can become a sanctuary for both yourself and the nature creatures that you share it with.

Sensitive design of your space allows you to introduce a more spiritual element to your garden retreat - creating space for you to relax, unwind, spend time with nature and to meditate.

Most gardens support nature in some way with their ordinary, everyday selection of trees and shrubs - few gardens are a natural dessert. However, you can greatly enhance your garden habitat with planting that is nature friendly and also that brings you joy. SImple planting changes can greatly enhance your garden - attracting pollinators, providing food for birds and overwintering habitat for insects, mammals and amphibians.

One of the biggest changes we can make in our gardens is the way we mantain them - this can be very simple. Stopping the use of chemicals and artifical fertisisers can make a huge difference to the biological diversity in your garden. It is not necessary to completely re-wild your garden to make it a haven for wildife - but small changes in your maintenance plan can make a big difference to the creatures you share your space with.
