Emmie and Grzegorz create gardens that are in tune with Nature, using sustainable environmentally friendly materials and functional design. They offer garden maintenance/makeovers and year round tidy ups; mowing, weeding, pruning trees, pond design/ maintenance, hedge and shrub cutting.
They create beautiful naturalistic feeling gardens that attract people, wildlife and grow healthy food. They can also create more ordered gardens with defined areas, and ornamental edible plant beds, it all depends what you're looking for in your garden. They mainly use Perennials in our designs as they are low maintenance and come back year after year. Also available for Environmental Arts workshops in schools and community groups. For more information on their workshops, please take a look at their sister page on Facebook Muddy Fingers Environmental Arts on the link shown below.
