Sherwood Garden Consultancy

About me

Sherwood Garden Consultancy is a garden design and garden-making company. I create gardens and outdoor spaces to connect people, places, and nature.

I have been making gardens and growing fruit and vegetables for many years. In 2020, after 25 years of work in health and social care, I consolidated my RHS L2 qualification in plant and garden design, attended courses and workshops with garden designer Adam Frost and worked on my Diploma in Garden Design. Through my company I have realised my dream in creating gardens for people, the community and nature.

Community & Shared Spaces

I work with community groups and volunteers to co-produce innovative nature-rich community-led spaces that are accessible to all. My many years of experience in social and healthcare offer a unique set of skills. I create spaces with full design and project management, enhance and develop existing spaces, or work with community groups to maintain and develop the gardens and environment together.

Wildlife Gardens & Habitats

I specialise in creating wildlife gardens, natural community spaces and wildlife ponds. Working in a sustainable way I develop habitats for nature through planting, water and natural materials to create beautiful spaces for people and nature

Garden Design & Build

Through the process of sharing ideas around form, colour, and style we will develop a planting scheme and layout including plant images and names to work alongside existing shrubs and trees that we agree to keep. The planting design would be developed considering your likes and interests, biodiversity and maintenance, with plants that will work well in your garden.

“It’s been an absolute pleasure having Andy create our wildlife pond. From start to finish he has been so knowledgeable, experienced, and professional in working with us to create this beautiful space.”
