Years back, while studying art and graphic design, I was attracted to naturally derived colors, yarns and materials. So I started to extend my love of beautifying the world to the outdoors, created garden art and planted herbs for teas, tinctures and creams. The pandemic took me magically back to garden projects. I cannot be happier to combine the expertise I have gathered over the years with my intuition and love for the plant kingdom.
As a designer I like to see your vision come to life, and you are always part of the process. Maybe an existing space needs a touch, weeding and shaping. Maybe your garden wants to be renewed!
Stonework and natural materials blend organically and enhance a calm and vibrant atmosphere. Trees and shrubs are cut healthily and artfully. Color and structure add life. Electro-culture improves nutrition. Fire safety is the challenge of our times, and we can come up with a concept and execution to create a suitable garden for you and your family.
My promise: I am not your ordinary yard worker!
My garden services extend to Home- and Pet Sitting when you are gone. Please ask me for more information about it; or if you want a garden project combined with a house sitting job while you are away.
