Eco-friendly Approach

Products / Equipment

Use of only manual or battery operated equipment. Weed, pest and disease treatments offered are non-toxic and kid and pet friendly. Recycling and repurposing products and bi-products where possible, such as garden edging, landscaping rocks and plastic pots.

Processes

Mulching to help retain water in the soil and reduce the occurrence of weeds. Where possible recycling naturally occurring mulch, such as fallen leaves, and grass cuttings. The establishment of composting to both feed your garden and reduce household waste.

Plants

Use of drought tolerant plants such as natives, succulents and cacti. A focus on native and indigenous plants encouraging biodiversity, attracting local animal life. A move away from the “thirsty” lawn, instead using other semi permeable surfaces.
