Garden care in Launceston & the Tamar Valley

Your garden, grown and looked after.

We keep lawns, hedges and trees tidy like any good maintenance crew. Where we go further is the growing: building and reviving veggie patches, caring for fruit trees, and keeping flower beds full all season.

What we love doing

Veggie patches, fruit trees and flower beds

Most garden services mow and go. We're horticulturally minded: we look at your soil, what's growing, and what you want to be picking or looking at next season, then do the work to get there.
