Totnes Gardening

Expert garden maintenance

Welcome to Totnes Gardening. I’m Kevin, and for over 20 years, I have been working with nature to create outdoor spaces that thrive. My journey began at the prestigious Dartington Hall Gardens, where I learned that a garden isn’t just a collection of plants—it’s a living system.

Today, I bring that heritage of horticultural excellence to homes in Totnes, Dartington, and the South Hams. Whether you need a seasonal reset or regular, reliable maintenance, I combine traditional craftsmanship with modern, eco-friendly practices.

What I Offer

I don’t just cut grass; I care for the land. My services are designed to improve the health of your garden year after year.

  • Garden Maintenance: Precision grass cutting, border weeding, lawn edging, and seasonal leaf clearance. I treat your garden with respect, leaving it pristine every time.

  • The "Quiet" Approach: I use professional battery-powered equipment. This means no roaring petrol engines, no fumes, and no noise pollution. It is better for you, your neighbours, and the wildlife.

  • Hedge & Tree Care: From decorative topiary to managing native hedgerows, I ensure your boundaries are neat, healthy, and safe for nesting birds.

  • Rewilding & Organic Landscaping: Thoughtful interventions that boost biodiversity. We can turn unused corners into wildflower havens or install ponds that invite life back into your garden.

Why Choose Totnes Gardening?

  • Dartington Trained: Two decades of hands-on expertise, shaped by the high standards of one of Devon’s most famous gardens.

  • Reliability: I am a local, owner-operated business. When you book me, you get me—not a different agency worker every week.

  • Eco-Conscious: As a registered Environment Agency Waste Carrier, I ensure all green waste is removed ethically and composted.

  • Fully Insured: Professional service with full public liability cover for your peace of mind.

Inspired by Nature, Built for You

You don’t have to choose between a "wild" garden and a "neat" garden. You can have both. Whether you have a compact town courtyard or a sprawling country lawn, I work with the seasons to ensure your space looks stunning and supports the local ecosystem.
