Kitchen Gardens and Orchards
The explosion of
the organic movement and healthy eating has seen an incredible revival of
home grown food. We are often asked to incorporate a kitchen garden, where
vegetables, soft fruit and fruit trees not only provide fresh produce, but
also become part of an educational process for children and adults alike.
We also specialize in the revival and restoration of old orchards, often
found as part of established rural gardens.
Country Fencing
‘Good fencing
makes for good neighbours’, so the saying goes, and a practical or
decorative barrier often enhances many projects. We can supply and install
whatever is required, but the most popular are post and rail for horse
paddocks, high tensile wire for sheep and cattle, rabbit netting for plant
and tree protection, or a variety of traditional Norfolk reed, woven hazel,
metal park railings or wooden panels for decorative work.
Woodland Restoration
and Conservation Projects
Our native
woodland is still rapidly disappearing, mainly through neglect. The simplest
of coppicing projects will greatly enhance both the structure of old
woodland and increase the diversity of its wildlife and flora.
New plantations ensure we leave a legacy for the next generation to enjoy
the delights of an English wood. Even a small copse of half an acre or less
can provide considerable mixed habitat – and simply planting a group of
trees has an enormous beneficial effect.
The scope of our rural activities also includes, hedge laying, pond cleaning
and creation, wild flower meadows and hedge planting.
Special Events
The marquee has
been erected, the caterers are laying up the tables and the party planners
are doing their stuff – but the garden looks less than impressive.
At times like this, we are able to provide the finishing touches to that
special event by bringing the garden to life and completing the ambiance for
the day.
Maintenance
The bane of most
people’s lives is time – or rather lack of it. What was once that perfect
garden with not a weed in sight, immaculate lawns and close clipped hedges,
is now through lack of time looking a little tired.
Our contract maintenance service removes the pressure, and allows you to
enjoy your garden whilst still taking an active part in is development.
We provide a special service for Estate Agents, Landlords, Letting Agents
and Property Developers to ensure their assets are kept presentable at all
times – first impressions are often the most lasting and profitable.
