About Us
I’m Séverine – garden designer, landscaper and horticulturalist from Manchester, UK.
I’ve been gardening professionally since 2007; before that i managed environmental and landscaping projects for the Groundwork Trust.
I learnt my horticultural skills from getting stuck in on the family farm in France, working with other gardeners and landscapers and by formal study. I have a degree in environmental studies, a certificate in garden design and a RHS horticultural qualification.
I have worked at Glebelands market garden (this is a fantastic organic urban food growing business, check them out) and at Arley Hall gardens in Cheshire. These are 8 acres of RHS affiliated gardens, which have been developed over the past 250 years – a great place to learn about plant combinations and colours.
More recently I have been mentored by artist and garden designer Kate Davies, who is truly inspirational.
And in April 2011, with fellow horticulturalist Brenda Smith, I opened Bud Garden Centre, in South Manchester, where we sell quality plants and sustainable garden products.
In a previous life I managed environmental projects at the Groundwork trust and I still provide consultancy support from time to time. I’ve written business plans, funding applications and organic gardening training manuals for Rotters, Offshoots and Fairfield Compost, and was horticultural consultant for the urban gardening exhibition at Urbis in Manchester.
For more information about how I can help you or to discuss a project idea, don’t hesitate to get in touch.
