About Us

About A Garden For You

NVQ-qualified, ten years in the trade, based in Ryde.

Nathan Fowler

Founder & Lead Engineer

Our Story

I'm Nathan, and I've been looking after gardens on the Isle of Wight for over ten years. I trained through an NVQ in Horticulture before going out on my own, and I still do every job myself rather than sending out a team.

Most weeks that means the same core jobs: lawns kept tidy through the growing season, hedges cut back before they get out of hand, and the general upkeep that stops a garden turning into a weekend-eating project. I also take on the bigger seasonal jobs, spring tidy-ups and autumn leaf clearance, for gardens that need more than a regular mow.

Working alone means you get the same person every visit, not whoever's free that week. It also means I know the gardens I look after: which lawns scorch first in a dry spell, which hedges need cutting twice a year instead of once, which borders need staking before the wind gets to them.

I cover Ryde and the surrounding area, out to Wootton, Fishbourne, Seaview and Bembridge. If your garden needs sorting out, get in touch for a free quote.
