Good to know.
A few answers before our first conversation.
Do I need to change my entire garden?
No. The starting point is the garden you already have. We look at what works and where focused changes make sense. A single area can be a useful place to begin.
Do I need a clear idea already?
An open question is enough. Tell us how you use your garden, what you would like to keep and where you would welcome a change. This gives us a direction to explore.
What helps with an initial conversation?
The location, a short description of the garden and your main questions are a useful start. If available, keep photographs or a garden plan ready for the conversation.
How are scope and costs agreed?
Share your expectations, budget and the extent of support you have in mind. The consultancy and support appropriate to your project are discussed individually.
