About us

Our founder and manager, Thomas Porter (Tom), was born and raised in Hampshire in the village of Hartley Wintney. He originally trained as a farm manager at Sparsholt agricultural college, going on manage various farms in the UK and around the world. On his return to the UK, Tom re-trained as a carpenter at CONEL in London. With a good grounding in these two professions, a sideways step into landscape gardening was a logical and easy transition. Tom has since worked as a foreman for Scarletts garden services, and as a managing partner at the successful New Leaf London landscaping company, before deciding to branch out on his own.

Known for his creativity, problem-solving and unstinting work ethic, Tom brings together a network of trusted freelance gardeners and labourers from across London, with each project's team specifically formed to offer skills that match the job at hand.
