Keep it simple
You don't need a fancy design to grow a beautiful, abundant edible garden.
Your garden and its layout will evolve over time, as you get to know what works, and what you like.
I've used this simple method to design many gardens and I've found its all most people need to get started.

What people are saying
I’ve completed my plan! I’ve really enjoyed your videos and the challenge - I wouldn’t have known where to start without it.
I’m very new to all this but I completed the tasks really easily and really enjoyed it.
You explained things really well and the videos weren’t ever too long or boring.

I had been wanting to create a veggie patch in my garden for ten years. I had all the books but felt so overwhelmed that I never got started.
Now I have a plan for which feels doable and practical. It's been nine days and my raised bed is here!!!!! I cannot express how good it feels.
If you have been wanting to start growing your own food and need a helping hand, Caroline is amazing. She makes overwhelming things sound simple and is a mine of information.

Who is this for?
-
No! This will work for small gardens, yards and even balconies. You do need to have some outdoor space available.
-
This course is aimed at people in the UK and similar temperate climates. While the mapping out is the same where ever you are in the world, some of the specific plant guidance may not be accurate elsewhere. Please contact me about your situation if you are not sure :-)
-
No! The purpose of the sketch is to enable you to place the various elements of your garden in the right place, not to produce a pretty picture.
If you prefer not to touch a pencil you can also make a copy of the Google Earth map and draw on it digitally.
-
No.. This is a design course that will show you where to place the various elements in your garden, but not how to grow them. If you need help with growing methods only then please check out my other courses.
-
Yes! Even if you've never grown anything before, the first step is to decide where you are going to set up your garden.
Welcome
Hello! I'm Caroline Scott, and over the past 15 years I have helped hundreds of people to design and set up edible gardens.
I love to simplify food growing with easy practical steps, and help people to create gardens that work in harmony WITH nature, to grow MORE food with LESS work and more fun!
As an intuitive gardener I use food growing and foraging to connect to nature on a deeper level, which is healing to both body and mind.
I have a vision of cities overflowing with fruit and vegetables, and a patchwork farm of edible gardens, healing people and the planet. I would love you to be part of this!
