Garden coaching and garden refresh

Want to grow it yourself, or bring a tired garden back to life? Our garden coach comes to your backyard and teaches you hands-on, and our refresh service clears, rebuilds and replants gardens that got away from you.

Garden coaching: learn by doing

Books and videos are great, but nothing beats someone standing next to you in your own garden. Coaching sessions cover whatever you need: planning what to plant this season, fixing yellow leaves, spotting pests early, setting a watering schedule or knowing when to harvest.

You leave each session with a clear to-do list and a planting calendar built for your yard. It is the fastest way to go from “I keep killing plants” to “we have more tomatoes than we can eat.”

Garden refresh: bring it back to life

Life gets busy and gardens get away from people. A refresh gets you back to productive in a day or two. We clear weeds and spent plants, repair beds, rebuild the soil with compost, fix the drip system and replant for the current season.

After a refresh, most clients either keep it going themselves with a little coaching or move onto a maintenance plan. Starting from scratch instead? See edible garden installation, or compare pricing.

Garden Coaching & Garden Refresh: common questions

What does a garden coach do?

A garden coach visits your garden and teaches you to plan, plant, water, feed and harvest it yourself. Sessions are hands-on and focused on your yard, your plants and your questions.

How many coaching sessions do I need?

Many people start with one session to get a plan, then book a few follow-ups at season changes. Some prefer monthly coaching through their first year.

My old raised beds are falling apart. Can you fix them?

Yes. We repair or replace boards, rebuild the soil, fix or add drip irrigation and replant. If the beds are beyond saving we will tell you honestly and quote new ones.

I inherited a garden when I bought my house. Where do I start?

Book a refresh assessment. We will tell you what is worth keeping, what needs work and what it would take to make it productive again.
