A year of
garden coaching
Gardening shouldn’t be this hard.
No doubt about it, gardening’s good for us – body, mind and soul. But it doesn’t always come as easily as you might hope. Every now and then, don’t you just wish there was someone you could turn to for a little help and encouragement, or a timely suggestion should you find yourself in bit of a rut? Maybe even the occasional (always gentle) nudge – just to remind you what you were intending to do, and to cheer you along as you get stuck in.
This is where garden coaching can come in.
Such a fun and inspiring coaching programme! Andrew is really encouraging, positive and friendly. Like having the most knowledgeable gardening friend just an email away!

We’d all love the kind of gorgeous garden you see in magazines, but life so often gets in the way. Creating the dream garden slips down the list of priorities – somewhere below paying the mortgage, feeding the family and making sure you have your clothes on the right way round when leaving the house. If you’ve ever stood in your garden and wondered just where to start, you’ll know what you could really do with is a little help.
Books, blogs and podcasts can fire your enthusiasm, but a knowledgeable guide to walk you through the process can make all the difference when it comes to creating a garden that reflects your tastes and the way you want to spend your time.
If you’ve ever stood looking at your garden and thought,
“I don’t know what to do”
“I don’t know what to buy”, or
“I don’t know where to start”
then a year of garden coaching might well be for you.
I’ve never been able to enjoy the garden more than this week, I’ve finally got to a point where I can look out on it and just see beauty, rather than things I’d like to improve. I have so appreciated your patience and kindness and permission-granting over the past year, and I shall miss it!

A year of garden coaching
A one-to-one, online programme lasting 12 months.
I created this programme to support you as your garden changes throughout the year, but you don’t have to wait till spring to get going – you can start whenever you like! I’ll be on-hand every step of the way, providing expert guidance and meaningful two-way conversation, regular progress reviews and monthly suggestions to help you make the most of your gardening time. At the end of the year you’ll have gained a range of essential skills and knowledge, your approach to the garden will be informed by a clear plan backed up by realistic goals, and your outdoor space will be well on the way to its transformation into your dream garden.
A year’s one-to-one online garden coaching provides you with…
An initial online garden consultation to define where you are on your gardening journey and help you to focus on what you want from your garden, with the opportunity to identify one particular project to work on through the year
12 monthly coaching letters with inspirations and actions relating directly to the aims you identified in our initial consultation
Unlimited email support throughout the programme
Two further Zoom/Skype calls scheduled for key points in the gardening season
Priority access to a series of in-depth gardening guides as they become available (on gardening tasks like soils, pruning, propagating plants etc)
At the end of the 12-month coaching period, a review of the year’s progress, with goals for the coming season.
You are the most excellent cheerleader! Genuinely, thank you – your gardening coaching has been amazing, your advice and encouragement truly invaluable. I feel like I’ve learned so much even over just the last couple of months.

I knew my landscaping could be better. I hoped Andrew could point me in a more interesting direction. He did. I had a vague dream of a cutting garden, which evolved into a real-life raised bed garden with vegetables inside the fence and deer-resistant perennials outside. Under his coaching, we’ve planted fruit trees, taken hundreds of cuttings, ordered bees, grown flowers and food from seed. Thank you Andrew!
