EDIBLE GARDEN CONSULTATIONS FOR FLAT OUT FOLK ON THE GROW
Consultations and support for busy folk to get their productive gardens out of the ground & onto their plates with minimal fuss and maximum enjoyment. Illawarra
Why an edible garden garden though & not just a row of mondo grass?
Growing food is so much more than simply an opportunity to stick something in your mouth.
It’s connection.
It’s getting grounded.
It’s creativity at play.
It’s saving you from having to venture forth into the realm of commerce for a bunch of parsley - half of which will probably slime out in the fridge because it got forgotten.
It’s an opportunity to park busy by the door and explore.
Love to grow an edible garden, but no idea what to plant or how to go about it?
An hour at your place involves us completing a walk through of the proposed site discussing the core elements required to make your dreams a tasty reality.
(Think sunlight, micro climates, existing plants and structures, clarifying priorities, what type of soil you’ve got access to, identifying quick wins vs the long-game structure and you’re on the right track.)
( let’s make a picnic out of the overwhelm)
This individual edible garden consultation laying the base for your own produce isle in the sun is $185.
We’ll work with the holistic framework of permaculture - a set of design tools as nature intended, keeping in mind the principles of earth care, people care and fair share.

Kind words from past clients
“Sarah is one of the most talented and inspiring people I know, and is a font of knowledge about all things food and gardening. Sarah is incredibly generous with sharing this knowledge, and has helped me on my gardening journey in so many ways. Right at the beginning she helped me plan my garden, mapping out zones for herbs, vegetables, fruit trees and natives. She has shared practical tips along the way such as how to deal with particular pests in our area, where to source seeds and seedlings, irrigation systems and how to manage soil fertility. Sarah is also a big picture thinker, and holds an enormous amount of knowledge about farming systems, the global food system, health, sustainability and soil.”
— Suzy, Bulli
“Working with Sarah was an outstanding experience. Her deep knowledge, creativity, and lived experience of building her own garden from scratch really set her apart. She took the time to understand what mattered to us and how much time we realistically had for maintenance, resulting in a garden design that is both beautiful and sustainable. Her growing-from-seed and composting workshops were also invaluable, giving us the confidence to garden more eco-consciously. We couldn’t recommend Sarah more highly.”
— Penny & Mick, Towradgi
