The Sussex Farmhouse

A remote consultancy project, focusing on cut flowers and home grown fruit and vegetables. The brief was to help the family rejuvenate an inherited and neglected raised bed area onsite in order to produce abundant edibles in an easy step by step way.

Focusing on organic gardening principles, we worked on understanding soil health fundamentals, why we need to garden for biodiversity and how to maximise productivity and health through companion planting. This fun project saw the entire family involved - from mulching, to seed sowing and cropping. The aim of this project was to empower the entire family to grow and gain confidence in their new garden, giving them the skills to enjoy and develop the space independently in future.
