About Finn

A down-to-earth horticulturist who loves a garden that works for people and wildlife.

Hello, I’m Finn

I’m an independent horticulturist with an eye for detail and high standards. I fell in love with gardening young, through a lasting interest in the natural world and the hands-on side of looking after a garden.

I’m a proud generalist, always collecting new skills. I believe skilled gardening is a craft worth keeping alive, and that a garden should be somewhere everyone can enjoy, including wildlife lovers and keen gardeners who can’t do as much as they used to.

Whatever the size of your garden, I’ll explain what I’m doing and why, without the jargon.
