How I can help you get on top of your Garden in 2023

A Garden Hoedown is what I called my Garden Consultation Service, purely because ‘Garden Consultation’ sounds so boring!  Someone once called it Garden Therapy as they were feeling so stressed and overwhelmed by their garden and not enjoying it all!  Others have found it really helpful at different times:

– perhaps you’ve recently moved in and are overwhelmed by the garden you’ve inherited

– you’re about to put your house on the market and want it to make a good impression

– you’ve just built an extension and can now see your garden more

– or perhaps you’ve spent the last 18 months using it more and you have a niggly feeling it could be working better for all the family!

The Covid Lockdowns have made us look at our outdoor spaces in a different way.  Being in our gardens has made us re-think and re-prioritise all sorts of things as our gardens have given different meanings for all members of the family.  You might have gained a puppy, or be working from home more.  You might want to entertain outside more often and for a longer part of the year, or you might want to continue to the quiet and solace your garden brought you.

A Hoedown might be for you if you don’t need a full garden design but want input from a professional garden designer, gardener and prolific garden user!  Here’s how it works:

Here’s what Claire had to say following our Hoedown: 

“I spent a lovely hour in my back garden with Renée having a Hoedown.  She is so enthusiastic and knowledgeable.  I feel very inspired now and, most importantly, confident that I can change my garden to suit my family.  Renée listened to what I hoped to achieve and asked all the right questions.  I can’t wait to get started and thanks to Renée’s follow-up email with links and reminders of what we talked about it didn’t matter that I forgot most of the plant names we talked about! Thank you”

 

Garden Hoedown
  • In your garden for an hour!  I bring my secateurs, a blank pad of paper, pens and my trowel
  • I send you a Summary report afterwards  – including any sketch ideas and links to inspiration, suppliers, contractors, or plants
  • COST: £150 within a 5-mile radius of Redhill paid upfront to secure the meeting (I’m more than happy to travel further afield but will need to factor in travel time and costs)

Email me to get the ball rolling!

  • 1-hour virtual meeting held at an agreed time from your home over Zoom

Need some Garden Therapy? Here’s how a Hoedown can help!

A Hoedown is what I called my Garden Consultation Service, purely because ‘Garden Consultation’ sounds so boring!

Someone called it Garden Therapy as they were feeling so stressed and overwhelmed by their garden and not enjoying it all!  Others have found it really helpful at different times:

  • perhaps you’ve recently moved in and are overwhelmed by the garden you’ve inherited

  • you’re about to put your house on the market and want it to make a good impression

  • you’ve just built an extension and can now see your garden more

  • or perhaps you’ve spent the last 18 months using it more and you have a niggly feeling it could be working better for all the family!

This last few years have changed everything.  With the onset of Covid and the various lockdowns we’ve found ourselves in since March 2020, being outdoors and in our gardens has made us re-think and re-prioritise all sorts of things as our gardens have become safe havens for all the family.  Working throughout lockdown has meant I’ve had to be creative so I now have 2 offerings if you’re looking for some input into your garden:

Face to Face Hoedown

  • In your garden WITH a cuppa for an hour!
  • In your garden with payment upfront by BACS
  • Summary report sent afterwards so you don’t have to take any notes – including any sketch ideas and links to inspiration, suppliers, contractors, or plants
  • COST: £125 within a 5-mile radius of Redhill (I’m more than happy to travel further afield but will need to factor in travel time and costs)

Virtual Hoedown

  • Phone conversation to confirm priority areas (I’d suggest that design, layout, planting ideas work best this way)
  • Photos and video sent of the space before our meeting with guidance from me of best angles etc
  • Payment upfront by BACS
  • 1-hour virtual meeting held at an agreed time from your home WITH a cuppa for an hour over Zoom
  • Summary report sent afterwards so you don’t have to take any notes – including any sketch ideas and links to inspiration, suppliers, contractors, or plants
  • COST: £125
