Why listen to me?
🌿I’m Sarah, Planting Designer and Founding Director of Discovering Gardens and the Thriving Garden Academy. I’ve been creating beautiful gardens since 2010
🌿I’ve taught many beginners and more experienced gardeners about all elements of garden design and planting design, including how to make fabulous plant choices and combinations, create sustainable gardens for wildlife, and more
🌿I’ve mentored many garden professionals who want to build confidence with their plant knowledge so they can provide a better service to their clients
🌿I trained at the renowned Capel Manor College in London, and I’ve completed my training in Permaculture Design and Engaging Children in Permaculture, which beautifully supports my passion for growing food and creating sustainable gardens that support our native wildlife
🌿I have a long-term fascination with nutrition and using plants for health. I studied with the College of Naturapathic Medicine and I am honoured to be an Ambassador for this wonderful organisation
I love sharing what I’ve worked so hard to learn. A garden is a sanctuary, a place of both peace and excitement, and it should be accessible to everyone. Often a lack of knowledge or confidence can stop us from creating something beautiful, so I’m here to help you become unstuck and choose beautiful plants with confidence.
“Sarah is an exceptional garden designer who approaches her work with complete professionalism. I recently completed a planting design course with her, and I found it incredibly helpful, especially considering its reasonable price. Additionally, Sarah is highly flexible and always willing to assist. I look forward to working with her on our upcoming project. Her wealth of experience is evident, and I wholeheartedly recommend her services.”
Yusuf, Landscape Architect
“I absolutely loved Sarah’s talks on gardening. I’d never grown anything I could eat before, and she inspired me to grow all kinds of things, from herbs and tomatoes to green leaves and edible flowers! She has a huge knowledge of plants and gardening and her sessions were full of really useful tips, but more than just being informative and helpful, they were interesting, engaging and fun.”

“Sarah created content as part of our nature-based online programme to support individuals throughout national lockdown. Her content was engaging and well researched, it was clear that she has expert knowledge in the field. Sarah mastered the balance of information and hands-on practical activities and was able to adapt these based on participants level of experience. Not only was her content engaging, her presentation style was inspiring and motivating which was much needed during the difficult lockdown period.”
