1:1 Garden Mentor - Consultancy - Companion Gardening
What is it?
This is a collaborative gardening experience where we work together, learning, growing and building to create the garden you want. We can work on specific projects such as planting schemes, building compost bins & ponds or growing fruit and veg.
Alternatively, we can work together for an allocated amount of time to get your garden up to speed and more manageable so you can enjoy it.
This service is aimed at people who want to be active in their garden, desire a better connection to nature whilst also wanting to do their part to combat climate change, even if on a small scale. Rosie wants to empower you to feel confident and excited to care for your own patch of land whilst positively contributing to the biodiversity and ecosystems that naturally exist.
Driven by life.
Following organic principles and with biodiversity at the forefront, Rosie aims to aid you in feeling more connected to nature and therefore more likely to make sustainble and organic choices when it comes to caring for your garden.
The impact we can have on our local environment is huge and so often overlooked. By tuning in to the life cycles happening in our own backyards we can better understand the intricacies and the web of life that keeps us all connected.

“I have been working with Rosie for a year, and in that time, I have grown as a gardener. She has supported my vision for my garden in a sympathetic and informed way. In the space of 12 months, I have gone from being a complete novice to growing my own plants from seeds; to growing my own vegetables; to developing my vision for my garden, and all with the newfound confidence that Rosie has given me.
This time last year, my garden lacked structure and a sense of purpose but this year it is ready to go! She is a lovely, approachable person and easy to work with; she has made gardening enjoyable. I look forward to showing her what I have done since seeing her last, and what has popped up in my garden.
If you are looking for a different approach to gardening with someone who will show you techniques for maintaining, developing and enhancing your garden in a calm and collaborative way; and to help you become a knowledgeable and independent gardener then I would recommend Rosie to you.”
