Christine Barve Garden Design

After a long career in the public sector, I decided to leave the Boardroom behind and find an alternative career which enabled me to build on and expand a long-held passion for gardening and design. Volunteering with the National Trust and working with local gardening companies provided me with further insight and experience of what makes, and doesn't make, a garden work. It also confirmed that working in garden design and making people's gardens work for them was what I wanted to do and am good at. I have many years of practical experience creating and maintaining my own gardens and professional qualifications in Horticulture and Garden Design from the Royal Horticultural Society and West Midlands' leading horticultural centre, Pershore College in Worcestershire. I bring passion, practicality and professionalism to any project I undertake and enjoy helping people to create and transform their gardens and outdoor spaces.
