A couple of packages for garden consults are below; for other advice, we can tailor a package to your needs.

Option1: Mini consult and advice package (roughly 1.5 -2 hours) $120:

This is basically a one off discussion, to talk through your ideas, to encourage and inspire

- Sit down with you (ideally everyone involved in the design) to discuss your time, energy and financial budgets, what you would like out of the site (e.g. how much and what kind of foods) and what elements you would like in the design e.g. herb gardens, productive vegetable and fruit gardens, compost system, poultry system, no dig-or raised beds, etc.

- Walk around your property to get a feel and observe the characteristics (e.g. sun, wind, slope, existing gardens etc) and draw up a quick sketch of ideas we have talked about.

- Walk the site with you and hear your ideas, and discuss a way forward and next steps.

Option 2: Consult, advice and design package (roughly 5 hours) $350

Same as above plus the following below:

- Go away and come up with some ideas, a basic sketch and concept design, basic next steps, list of plants etc.

- Re-meet to discuss ideas.
